Thursday, 13 March

Got up only once last night for Olivia - just had to give her the pacifier. So got up and we started the day right on schedule. I fed the animals, Kurt made the bed, I let the dogs out, Kurt got lunches together, I got Olivia up and dressed, fed, cleaned and Kurt got the cars packed up. It was a nice morning, except we did get into an argument about redoing the floors. Kurt wants to start Friday but I'd rather wait until he has a weekend off from Pronto. But we did come to a compromise - Kurt is going to work on redoing the breakfast bar (we are redoing the kitchen entirely - so he is going to start with the bar for now). Did my cardio and ab workout this morning, work was fine, at lunch I went to Costco and renewed our membership, got dog food, toilet paper, muffins, air freshener refills, 3 outfits for Olivia and granola bars. I'm still having headaches - they last all day. Darn sinuses. After work, picked up Olivia and got home, unloaded the car and then fed the animals. I was rushing because Olivia had an appointment with the dermatologist at 5:40 and it's back by my office. So got her cleaned up, her skin was pretty dry and she had an explosion in her pants. So got her ready and got her in the car, of course I was running late but luckily when I called the office they said no big deal. So, got her there and the doctor/nurses were so nice. They took some skin samples to test, they prescribed some medication and gave me a lot of helpful hints and free samples of eczema cream stuff. Olivia was a trooper, she didn't cry at all - after that, met up with Todd and Kurt for dinner at Nello's. Dinner was good but not too hungry, I had my salad but left the pita for lunch for Kurt on Friday (He has tomorrow off). So after that, got home - it was around 8:20 or so. Got Olivia all ready for bed and gave her a half bottle before bed. She finished that and then pretty much fell asleep. She was being so sweet. While I was holding her, she kept saying Da Da Da Da and then fell asleep. Kurt went out for a while to see some friends, I got everything ready for tomorrow, packed the diaper bag, made bottles, got gym bag packed, cleaned up Olivia's room, did some laundry and folded clothes then went to bed. I had caffeine at dinner so I took a couple of Sleeping pills and went to bed. The animals were all sleeping on the bed with me. They never listen when I tell them to get out of the bed. Oh well... I guess I'm the softy.
