Was too tired to post yesterday. I had played with Libby all day and after putting her to bed, I wet-mopped the entire downstairs. Afterward my ankles and legs were so tired that even after sleeping for 3 hours they still hurt.
I'm still getting used to the keyboard on my new computer. Still goes haywire from time to time, mostly when I'm on Blogger. I just need to get used to typing more purposefully or something, I guess. I feel like some of the problem is Blogger, because even when I save my work often, sometimes it still deletes itself...
Today is Father's Day and Libby and I gave DH a card that she colored in herself for 2 days (though it's hard to tell that it's 2 days' work, since she mostly just tries to eat the crayons and then put them back in the box), and what I call an "advance copy" of her 12-month baby book. I made it on Shutterfly and it's very pretty, but before I bought additional copies I wanted one as a preview. Now having it in my hands, I do think I need to make some edits before getting additional copies, but DH loved the gift. I knew it would be a perfect gift for Father's Day and so I rushed to finish it as soon as Libby's birthday passed.
Later we drove down to Salem and had dinner at a nice seafood restaurant with one of DH's former co-workers. Libby does not handle long seated dinners very well, so it took a lot to keep her entertained through dinner and dessert. I think some of it was the fact that she's kind of scared of men, and DH's friend's husband was sitting right next to Libby. I ate well and feel like my ribs are breaking.
I heard Boston "Don't Look Back" today, one of my favorites...
I finally see the dawn arriving
I see beyond the road I'm driving
I really would have liked to use that lyric as my blog title today, but it's not yet true. But at least I can say that things have improved since April. At that time I was living hour to hour. Now I can at least live day to day. I can get up in the morning and see my schedule through to bedtime.
