"...she wants to see how much we'll put up with before we give in"

Tuesday, February 11, 1992

     Last night was pretty rough again. Once she went to sleep she slept all night, but she was up til 11:00, fighting every inch of the way. We tried everything we could think of. We finally decided she's just gotten to the stage where she wants to see how much we'll put up with before we give in, and not necessarily her gums bothering her. We used the Tempra & the Anbesol both last night & it didn't seem like it made any difference. I think she's just gotten so used to having Guy home that when she knows he's here she wants to be with him. I didn't have any trouble getting her to take her nap this morning. Then Guy got home about noon & it was hard getting her to sleep this aft. But she finally slept for 2 & 1/2 hours! Guy gave her a bottle right after her bath & she went to sleep right afterward. Hopefully she'll sleep all night!

     Guy got off early because the XO told him he can't work in the radio shack because he doesn't have a security clearance. It wasn't updated when it was supposed to have been at SIMA. He has to be checked out all over again. He had to fill out a form with information about where we've lived, his parents' birthdays, and character references. He put down Ralph Dunbar, Henry Hardison, Steve Lowell, Mike Krebsback & Mr. Gibbs (next door). He needed to get work phone numbers and got all but Mike & Mr. Gibbs. He left a message on Mike's machine & said he'd just say unknown for Mr. Gibbs'.

     Guy took a nap while Ez. did this aft. I tried to take one but just mostly drifted. (I'm trying to write & watch the Olympic skating at the same time)
