So I’m back at Karen’s today.  The baby isn’t up yet, so the dog is keeping me company while I try to get this post done before he starts fussing. 

Yesterday wasn’t terribly difficult.  He’s an easy-going little guy, and at 11 weeks (today!), he’s not exactly mobile. But he does have a smile to melt your heart!  I watched a lot of television (which is unusual for me), but as I was figuring out his schedule, it made finding things to do a little more complicated.  I’m sure I’ll learn what I can do and when as I go.  I’d like to not spend the entire time watching TV, but it’s hard to find chores to do in someone else’s house!

I also had lots and lots of phone calls yesterday to distract me.  Karen called twice, Eric called, Mom called, Trisha called.  As Karen’s Erik said this morning before he left…he was about the only one who didn’t call me yesterday.  But he did send his wife flowers at work for her first day back, so that was probably more important!

Last night, we took my car to Westerville after dinner to drop it off at the place that will be replacing the cruise control today.  I’m very excited about having cruise again.  I’m not as excited about driving clear around the city at rush hour today to pick it up.  But I’m sure we’ll survive.  And I’ll have cruise control again…yippee!!!

This morning was a bit hectic since it was garbage day and Eric had to drop me off at Karen’s house, so we were both needng to be ready to leave at the same time (this is only ever true on Sundays).  So the result was that we did get the garbage out, but I forgot to brush my teeth and I left my cell phone on the end table at my house.  So much for my phone call distractions like yesterday!  Oh well…now things have settled down a bit (I’m just typing, the dog is sleeping on the back of the couch, and the baby still isn’t up yet).

I think that’s about all I have for now.  Happy Thursday!
