Getting a whole lot done.

Posted on by David Maxwell

After breakfast this morning we went downtown for Cars and Coffee. That is a monthly gathering of classic cars just off the square. There was pretty good turnout and some neat cars this morning. Luke wasn’t as impressed as I had hoped, but it was still nice to be outside on a pretty day. We returned home for snack and my dad came down to help me work on the she shed. We focused on the roof and put down the underlayment followed by furring strips. We got all of that done and were able to get the metal roofing on the front side of the shed. Our next door neighbor Jerry came over and chatted/held the ladder for most of the afternoon. Luke came out and watched from a distance. We packed up a little after five I think and went inside. My dad played with Luke while Liz went to get pizza. We all ate and Luke entertained us. My dad left and Luke had a bath then went to bed pretty easily since he didn’t have a nap. I hope to go to bed soon myself.

A Saturday kind of Friday.

Liz was off work today and Luke said it was a “mama day”. Unfortunately the weather was nasty. My dad was planning on coming down to help me work on some things, but that was pushed back to tomorrow. I hung a new bird feeder on the front porch and Luke had remote therapy. After that we went to the nature park. That was cold, but enjoyable. Luke barely stayed awake on the last stretch in his stroller. Lunch went quickly and then he failed to nap. Him and Liz went into town while I tried to buy a truck at an online auction. Unfortunately I did not win. Later this afternoon Luke and Liz had a “picnic” in his room. Dinner and bed time went well. I hope to get to sleep early tonight.

Doing a few things.

This morning we all drove up to Franklin. While Liz and Luke went to High Hopes I bought some groceries at Sprouts. After therapy we took a tour of a preschool next door. It was a pretty nice place. We drove home for snack and to drop off Liz. Luke and I went to the nature park and had a wonderful walk. After lunch he had a three hour nap. We read until Liz got off work. Unfortunately it was raining at that point. The downside of his nap is that it is now 8:53 and he is still not asleep and shows no sign of desiring to be. Liz has tomorrow off so today felt like Friday.

Wet but good day.

I didn’t get to sleep until nearly three this morning and had a pretty rough go upon waking up. Fortunately Madeline, Luke’s new nanny came back for a second morning. She played with him and he had a great time. I can’t wait for her to start full time in a week and a half! Luke had a good lunch but didn’t nap. We played until Liz got off work and then I looked for trucks on the computer. I missed out on a really nice one at the auction today. Dinner was quite late and so was bedtime. He went down without a fuss though. I am pretty tired and will hopefully fall asleep at a reasonable hour.

Pretty good day.

The new nanny came this morning as we were finishing up breakfast. After a little preparation she went with me and Luke to Henry Horton. It was a pretty morning and not long after we arrived our neighbors that we met a couple of weeks ago came as well with their nanny. It was good to talk with Jamie and Luke enjoyed playing with the two boys, the younger of which is just about three months younger than him. We stayed there for quite a while and then returned home for lunch. Madeline left to go to her class and after a little struggle Luke took a nice nap.

We read some after he woke up and once Liz got off work we all went for a hike at the nature park. It was beautiful outside and everybody had a nice time. Dinner was sort of cobbled together and Luke was pretty late going to bed. I have been unable to sleep and am on the couch now looking at trucks and trailers online.
