And on, and on, and on

Things are going all right out here. It's really hard with Rx gone all the time, every day. I know it's hard for him too - he's exhausted, as am I. Buying the business wasn't exactly great timing, but it was an opportunity that doesn't come around often (if ever), and we knew what it would entail. Hopefully things will be getting a little better soon. Things would be a lot easier if Munchy didn't hate her car seat so much, but as it is, it takes me 2 days to find the courage to go anywhere. For long distances, we just can't do it unless someone else drives and I can sit in the back with her (still not ideal, but worlds better than when she can't see me). Hopefully as she learns self-soothing, this will get easier.

And the heat sucks. I can't WAIT for autumn to get here, so that we can go for walks in the park, instead of inside the grocery store. I can't tell you how grateful I am, though, that Stater Bros. is next door. We go there almost every afternoon. :):)

But everything else is really going well - breastfeeding is no problem, and night-time isn't much trouble. And she's healthy (and HUGE - 17 lbs, 25"+ at 3 1/2 months!!) and mostly cheerful.

But every day is the same, and I can hardly remember whether it's the weekend, much less what day of the month it is. When does life settle down and approach normal again? Not even necessarily normal like it used to be - I know that's gone - but any kind of normal?
