Longish Day
Thomas had a nightmare around midnight, so I had to get up and soothe him back down. Then I slept poorly overall – woke up at 4:30 and couldn’t get back to sleep, so I got up. I blame the coffee and overeating at dinner last night. Today I managed to move a couple of software projects along, while still getting the kids through their morning homeschool session. One of my big clients is in temporary dormancy while they plot out their next bit of workload, but the others are keeping me busy enough that it doesn’t matter.
Our landscaper came over and reviewed the blueprints and marked off on the ground where some things will go, as the underground locator guys finished their job as well. Real work should commence tomorrow.
For dinner, I went with a marinated pork loin, macaroni and cheese, salad, and fruit. Turned out OK, though nothing spectacular.
As I expected, I ran out of steam while putting the kids to bed, and crashed myself. Or tried to – Lindsey hit her second wind and it took quite a while to get her to sleep. I finally went out around midnight.
