  • Planned: Weights
  • Actual: baby swim, 90 min mowing/weedeating yard

Not sure if I'm going ot make it to weights tonight or if I'll swap the walk for tomorow with weights today. Or just skip it. Very busy morning and I'm not sure how sore I'll be later form the yard stuff.

Took Julia to the pool to register for swim lessons and meet some new playgroup people. My voice still isn't back, so I couldn't chat a whole lot.

Julia was great! I was impressed with how much she remembers from last summer. She was in the water running, kicking, splashing,. laughing, trying to swim off on her belly and floating around on her back lounging. So long as I was nearby she was content. She cried when I took her out though and tried to jump back in even though I'd dried her off and dressed her in street clothes. She loooves water play!

The new large I-play swim diapers seem ok. These are different than last year's because they are smooth inside rather than terry. Her Tuga "scuba suit" still fits so we won't need another til late in the summer or maybe even next year over.

I got her nursed and napping and then I hit the yard to mow and weed-eat the fence edges.

Bloody hot out there but I wanted to take the chance while she was sleeping and get the grubby stuff done without her trying to help or getting in the way. especially the weedeating part because that kicks up dirt clumps, plant bits, and sometimes rocks.

Not sure what I want to do when she wakes up. Part of me wants to carry on with the weeding and the other part of me wants to hit Lowe's to buy flowers to plant.

Suppose it will depend on Julia's mood upon waking and if she eats well or not. If she doesn't eat well or gets crabby I'm staying in. If she's holding up, we'll go out once more today and get my plants, mulc, lumber, and other doodads.

I have to price chainsaws while I'm at it, and def get safety goggles before I use it. Coudl use them with the weedeater too -- keep junk of my glasses. I honestly don't see why Paul hasn't bought any since he wears glasses too. And he even weedeats barefoot. Ugh. Disgusting!
