"I hate all duty days."

Tuesday, May 12, 1992

     Elizabeth is doing better with her sinus infection but she sure has been grumpy. She's been taking good naps and sleeping all night, once she goes to sleep. Sometimes we have to rock or walk her completely to sleep. Yesterday's the only morning she's had a lot of gook in her eyes when she woke up. We're still using the eye drops but I've been putting one in each eye instead of two.

     I've been having a really hard time with wheezing and not being able to get anything up the past few days. But today I've been coughing up a lot of stuff and it's been pretty thick. I called yesterday & got an appt. next month with my new pulmonary dr., Dr. O'Neil. I was surprised that he answered the phone. I hope we'll get along well.

     I forgot to mention that Ez. was a handful at church Sun. morning. She wouldn't take a nap. She didn't want to play with anything I'd brought. I tried taking her for a walk but there were too many people roaming the hall. I took her outside but the sun was too bright & the traffic too noisy. I tried going into an empty classroom but hers was the only one empty & she just wanted to look around. So I decided to take her to the nursery. There were about five different babies in there and the people in there were Gary Cruspach & Ryan Bailey. I looked in the toddler room to see who was in there. It was Dinah Croft with her son & Spencer Ferguson. I was desperate enough to ask her if she could watch Ez. for the rest of the service. The sermon was half over by then. I only stayed long enough after church to change her diaper. She fell asleep on the way home & stayed asleep. I stopped at Wendy's to get a hamburger. I was planning to go ahead & take a nap but I couldn't go to sleep so I got up & ate then went to bed. I got maybe an hour of sleep before she woke up. We didn't go to church that night. I really do hate duty Sundays. I hate all duty days.

     Our Olan Mills pictures came Sat. We shouldn't have bought any, just gotten the free one. I hope the Sears ones come out better. We get those tomorrow.
