"She slept through the whole thing!"

Sunday, April 5, 1992

     Daylight Savings Time started last night & I really miss that lost hour. It might not have been so bad if Guy hadn't had duty & I had to watch TV late to go to sleep. Didn't get much of a nap this aft. cause the phone rang & I couldn't get back to sleep. It was Mercedes Hitchcock returning my call from last wk. They were out of town. I was inviting her to Jodie Rowland's shower. It was a brunch here yesterday morning. Cathy Schweitzer did most of the work–I just provided the house. There were 15 people there. It went pretty well. Cathy, Ruby Hopper & Merryl Gallahar came early to set up. I'd just put Ez. down for a nap but she was crying–fighting it. I fixed her a bottle of juice & told them to go ahead & do whatever they needed to set up while I took care of Ez. She went to sleep about 9:45, by the time she finished the juice. I turned her humidifier on & closed her door completely. I had the monitor downstairs. She slept through the whole thing! I went & got her up at noon as things were winding down. So everyone got to see her for at least a little bit. Chief stayed outside the whole time. He did try to get in a few times but most people didn't notice it. He didn't go as crazy as I thought he would when he came in & could smell everyone's scent.

     We didn't have to go out any yesterday cause Guy got a paper & brought it back before he went to work. She took a nap in the aft. but instead of napping I watched a tape–Narrow Margin. It was a good suspense movie. Last night I took my bath with her. She didn't seem to mind to much. She went to sleep around 8:30. She woke up around 3 something for almost an hour. I checked her diaper & it was ok so I just let her cry herself back to sleep. I sure didn't want to get up when my alarm went off this morning. We were almost ready when Guy got home so we weren't too late.

     We got our first ding in the car on the front passenger side door. The Wilsons parked next to us & when Josh opened his door it hit ours & left dark blue paint on it. We already have some touch up paint but Guy needs to wash the car before we can use it.
