Lazy Weekends
Stephanie has been getting up in the morning so I don’t have to do so. Oddly she doesn’t bill on the weekends so Saturday and Sunday are technically her days off. But my days off are Monday and Tuesday, and I still work. Caregiving is on call 24/7. I am still ending up being lazy…

Time with William
William came over today just to hang out. We talked for a bit until I got a call from Danny. Stephanie told me to get off the phone and I did. I offered to put in a movie for William and me, but he wasn’t interested. We talked a little more and then he had…

Turds
Ben usually gets a bath when he wants one. He sat on the toilet before he got in his bath tonight. A storm rolled in and Stephanie suggested that he sounded distressed because of it even though he was in the bath. I checked and he was sitting sideways in the tub with his legs…

Cotton Planters
I’m still playing a lot of Colonization Classic. There are four skills that can only be learned from the natives. So I speak with every village and city to see if they train one of those four, and if it’s one I still need then I send a free colonist or an indentured servant to…

Nap
We went out for errands that I needed to do myself. When we came home Stephanie’s mother was in the house visiting from Iowa. I crashed. I fell asleep for about six hours. I’m more awake now but I took my night meds and hope to go back to sleep after I eat. The house…

William’s Laundry
William prefers to do his laundry at our house instead of spending quarters to do it at his apartment building, and Stephanie facilitates that. He’s over and he and I have had some good conversations. We have been talking about personalities. All three of the cats have different personalities and Stephanie and I paralleled that…

God and my Wife
I gave a piece of advice to my oldest son Brandon today. His girlfriend wants him to be more holy. I agreed with her. But more importantly I think God agrees with her, so I told him if God and his girlfriend agree that he’d better pay attention. This theology has created a stable marriage…

The Right Screwdriver
The boy next door asked for help removing a screw. He’s maybe eight so hasn’t developed a lot of muscle mass or spatial reasoning to get the torq right. He also had a screwdriver that looked like someone drove a tank over it. So I got a couple of appropriate screwdrivers and followed him to…

Tea and Video Games
I haven’t eaten much today. I’ve been zoning out on video games and sipping tea most of the day. I did take a shower this afternoon and the boys have gotten what they’ve needed. I also do better at leaving Stephanie alone when I’m lost in a digital world. But I don’t feel very productive.…
