Life Is Like That

borrowed picture

I'm trying to get used to a new pair of contacts. For some reason, contacts seem to protect my eyes from allergies so they don't burn and water constantly, but trying to come up with the right combination of reading glasses and contacts to work at a computer all day and see the world around me too is a challenge.

My phone rang. It's Toni. Tim is sick, can I get home by 3:30 so he doesn't have to watch the baby? I was going to go in a half-hour late tomorrow because the baby is a "night person" lately and it's going to be a 10 hour day tomorrow, but I leave a half-hour early today instead.

Tim has a fever and can't watch Paige tomorrow at 3:00 and I have to work until 5:00. Well, I'll need to make some phone calls later.

I decide to feed Paige before trying to make Tim and me supper. Paige starts crying when she sees me beginning to make her bottle. Amid her cries, the dog is barking at the back door. She always does that when she sees me alone in the kitchen trying to work.

I take the dog out to her chain and finish the bottle. Feeding Paige in her swing is a good idea, because she finishes her bottle and relaxes to watch me fix supper. The phone rings, but Tim gets that and takes down a message for Katie.

We finish supper and I leave the dishes to give Paige a bath first. I know I'll be up late anyway, so maybe I'll get a chance to clean up the dishes I didn't get done while I was making supper.

Paige normally takes a short nap after her bath, which should give me a couple minutes to work on a blog before she gets fussy in the evening. At the moment, she's sitting on my lap with her hands on my wrists or pulling at my fingers. :( Makis iy a little hard to tope.)

She's actually giggling while she tries to push my hands around the keys. (Doing a good job of it, I might add.) I think I'll wrap things up and look for a picture. I wonder what I'll get if I google "frazzled"? :)
