One More Hour Of Work
Alison emailed me and told me that Nina has been having a bad day. See, Monday was the first day that Alison went back to work. Nina is at her grandmother’s place. Monday went fine, with only one fit of crying due to crapping herself. Tuesday, Alison’s mom said went fine, but once I showed up Nina started getting fussy. Then, when Alison showed up, Nina was fussier. The rest of the day was fussy. That night was fussy. It was all just so fussy.
Wednesday is Alison’s day off, weekly. She’s cut her hours down, but rather than getting off a few hours earlier each day, it just makes sense to have her get a full day off. Nina never has to be without Mommy 24/7 except for two days in a row. And since Mommy’s work starts at 9, lil Neener gets dropped off at 8:40ish and then I get there at 3:40ish, so she’d only without parents for 7 hrs. She likes her grandmother, but, hey, grandmother isn’t mommy or daddy. Oh, and there’s also Brad there as entertainment.

Nina woke up with me at 5:30 this morning and has only had a 45 minute nap so far. I need to eat something as I’ve only had pretzels for lunch and I’m starting to get a headache.
When Alison gets over to her mom’s place, then we’ll zip home and shortly thereafter, like at six, my parents will show up for a little 30 minute visit. I hope Nina is asleep at that time, really. But I know my parents really want to see her. But do they really want to see her scream?
