My head is too small

Remember the “My Brain Is Full” entry a ways back? Yeah, that’s what’s been going on. People to see One Last Time, chipped paint to take care of, children to keep alive, et cetera. It also means my funny bone is mostly gone, but I’ll update just because a few of you have asked. Once I’m less overwhelmed, I’m sure I’ll have all sorts of things to say. Probably more than you want to hear.

Emmy is thisclose to walking. Grace was thisclose to walking for months, but she’s certainly more cautious than Emmy. I don’t think Emmy will wait until she can walk perfectly. She’s perfectly happy crashing into sharp objects all over the place. I catch her halfway up the stairs several times a day. Blockading them with chairs doesn’t work anymore. She just slides right under. I’m so glad we’re moving soon. Carrying her on my back all the time is good for me, but it’s also tiresome.

Speaking of Grace, she is suddenly… normal.

She’s still shy, but she smiles at and flirts with anyone and everyone so long as one of us is close at hand. She asks for vegetables. She picks up mushy food. She doesn’t throw a fit if I wait until the end of breakfast to wipe the yogurt off her face and bib. Screaming during hairwashing has gone from Psycho to barely a yelp. She ate seven large, weird-looking mushrooms (in sauce!) at dinner today. I don’t know what happened, but I’m not going to question it.

We found a good home for the cat. Jeremy dropped her off today. Huuuge weight off our shoulders.

That’s all. I’m kind of fried. I’ll be back soon. We move in two weeks, and then I’ll never shut up.

OD likes to mess with the friends settings on some of my entries. OD also likes to kick people off my friends list. Please tell me if you think that has happened to you.
