Slowly but surely, dd is letting me get back into some sort of a routine. She went to bed last night at about 11, and slept all the way until 515. 6 hours of sleep! Good lord. She’s becoming more and more like her mommy in the sleep department. My envy grows.
As my envy grows, so does whatever the heck it is that I’m allergic to here in town. I’ve been sniffling like I’m watching the end of Titanic here. Seems a couple times a year, Seneca turns something on over there, and it kicks something in the air, and I sniffle. First year here, it was like clockwork. We’d get just about to the city limits on the east side of town, and I’d start welling up. “I’ll never let go”.
Yesterday, I came one step closer to completing the guest bedroom and bath. Minor stuff left. This has been a 2 year project, coming to a close this week, in preparation for Dad’s arrival. Just putting the finishing touches on, and its done. Hard to believe it. Damn allergies.
Mommy and baby are doing fantastic. C found her missing energy yesterday, and used it quite effectively, putting things back into place like she’s been wanting to do for a few weeks now. Ms. B started to warm up more to dd yesterday too.
Spent some time over at G&G’s (Or Great-G&G’s). I worked on a railing that I’ve been meaning to install while c+dd visited. G.Oz stopped in for a bit too and visited. Everyone got their daily dd quotas filled, so life was good again. The planets have realigned.
Today is baby’s day out, even under the weather we’re having (isolated t-storms, muggy). The “unveiling” of dd. We’ll stop off at my office to show her off a bit, then up to c’s office for more of the same, then to the zoo! “But Dustin, you can’t take a 2 week old to the zoo”. Shush you.
And as a reminder, we are a little over 1 week away from Kolacky Days! Beer garden Friday and Saturday up at Memorial Park (we won’t be pouring this year). Car show Saturday. Parade Sunday. I don’t mean to brag, but its the best damn small town festival in Minnesota. And I’m not partial there atall! I’ve been to 3 or 4 others, so I know what I’m talking about here! If you see us, say hi!
And with that, I go paint a floor. Wish me luck!
