"I want him back ASAP."

Tuesday, August 18, 1992

     I was so surprised when Guy called us again this aft. He said everything's kind of up in the air about when they'll get home. It could be the 31st, the 2nd, or the 8th. They're still making that other stop on the way home but couldn't tell me where or when except that it's in the states. He also mentioned the tropical storm headed for the Caribbean that might slow them down on the way back. I hope it doesn't. I want him back ASAP.

     I called Rosemary Snowden tonight to invite her over for lunch. She's coming Thu. I think Zack is 4 months old now. I hope it's not raining so Chief can stay outside. It didn't rain today. There was .7" in our rain gauge. Today's the first day in over a week that it hasn't rained at least part of the day. The patio was still wet when we got up.

     Oh, I heard Ez. around 7:30 but she wasn't fussing & the next thing I knew it was 8:23! I kept her up all morning & she still only slept 1½ hours. She kinda said mama tonight. I think I'm going to go ahead & put in her book that her first word was juice. I was going to when she first said it but before I got around to it I realized that she was calling lots of things juice. But now I think whatever she's calling juice, she is still saying the word. She said 'shoes' Sat. when  there was a commercial for shoes on TV.
