We were going to head home today, but with the well-below-freezing temperatures we decided it would be better to stay until tomorrow when it will be a teeny bit (just around freezing) warmer. Besides, this gave Carolyn (and us) a free day with no parties to attend, no where to drive to, and no interruptions in normal napping and eating schedules.
…Considering the amount of napping she’s done today, though, she’s either really worn out from the weekend or we’re in for a very wakeful night…
So far today I’ve finished reading a book (Dune, Messiah) and knitting a baby sock. I was going to start playing Myst IV, but that could be a dangerous thing to do when there’s Christmas wrapping, decorating and baking to be done when we get home. After all that’s done, I’ll start it. (Denis bought it for me the weekend after Carolyn was born, and I haven’t had an opportunity to play it yet!)
I’ve done all the packing I can do before morning, including doing the laundry – what a nice change to be coming home with bags of clean clothes instead of dirty! I don’t have much to do except start the second baby sock tonight. With any luck, I’ll be able to get it done by the time we get home!
