Penny slept pretty well last night, though needed a bit of rocking to sleep, followed by a minor screaming tantrum at 2:30am. She awoke at 8:45am. Annoying.
I walked to work, braving the ice and sub zero temperatures, and had quite a productive day. I also had 4 cups of tea, which is something of a work based personal best. I've also been put on to overnight support starting from Friday, so my occasional sleepless night will become more frequent. But at least I'll be paid for this with money, rather than just smiles.
Me and Howard had to bump start his car at lunchtime. That was fun and exciting. But then neither of us get out a great deal.
I walked home, again braving the ice and cold, and once there set about feeding/distracting Penny while Melissa had a shower and prepared for work. This evening wasn't anywhere near as bad as last night. Penny waved her off, then we ate fish fingers and watched some dross on TV. We decided on mutual terms at 5:50pm that it was time for a bath and so headed upstairs. She bathed, I washed her hair, then I dried her, clothed her and she snuggled down with a bottle and drifted off.
I'm not free to scoop up cat shit, stack a dishwasher and bake some spuds.
See you tomorrow!
