D stayed home from work today, made breakfast, took E out on errands, and then they went to an amusement park with his mother. He brought E home fed and exhausted. All I had to do was help give her a bath tonight. It even was his turn to read the bedtime story.
Oh, and they brought me home some pretty flowers from their errands!
What did I do? Chores, puttered around with some herbal stuff, took the car to the DEQ, bought an amazing pair of shoes, read part of a novel (!), and napped. Can you believe it? Aside from the laundry and the 90-minutes spent at the DEQ, the rest of the day was the sort of thing I daydream about.
The kid is asleep. It's not even 7pm. The evening stretches wide before me. Shall I knit? Read more? Take a bath? Go out and sing to the tomatoes?
More, please! Thank you, D.
sounds like heaven!!
