I guess that's the point of a diary - to record life in small doses so
it doesn't get overwhelming. Tiff took the kids all day today - first to
a playdate at McDonald's, then to work for the Chaliogianis kids, a
nice unexpected treat. I had most of the day to myself and went to the
library to check out the local history/genealogy collection. I don't
have any specific to Washtenaw County ancestors, but I did check up on
Sweenys and Larzeleres since they were in Michigan. After about an hour
of familiarizing, I went to work at Mancino's - incredibly slow today
and not a single delivery. That hasn't happened in months, and it is
certainly not typical for a Thursday. I hope this doesn't become a
pattern.
Back to library afterward for some transcription, then a perusal of some
genealogy magazines. I love having the library as a resource for books
and magazines that I want to read but can't spend the money on
purchasing - it's great! Picked up the kids from Tiffany so she could
work her dinner shift at Applebee's, then back home for a typical
evening of anti-dinner for the kids, watching Ratatouille, then
struggling over bedtime for an hour. It will get better someday, right?
