ABISHAG is still underwraps. I was going to unwrap her today and don't you know it snowed last night. SIGH!
Things in the sail-loft continue to be "interesting." It is, after all, NOT just a sail-loft, it is also a armory an a baby sitting service. The owner has a hobby of target shooting and so has a small section of the loft dedicated to re-loading his own bullets. He and a friend spend times packing their own loads which is at least one thing I have not been asked to be involved with during my time there.
I the babysitting service has to do ith the owner's 22 month old daughter. Three days a week she in involved in a day care center program at Connecticut College which is just up the road. Unfortunately, she is only there until 1:30pm which means that she gets to spend the rest of the afternoon at the loft. And she gets into everything. She always wants her daddy to hold her but it is not possible and cries when she doesn't get her way, which means she cries a lot as there is just no way to hold her as much as she wants. There are toys and bottles and all sorts of baby stuff, included half eaten snacks, scattered around the loft. And she just loves playing with the sail cloth, sail hardware and, since the loft work area is on the second floor, always trying to open the door that leads to the stairs. As all parents know, whatever she can't have she wants. NOW! And won't take "NO!" for an answer.
Conn College was on spring break this week and so the day care programs was shut down and Alexandra was at the loft all day every day. Let's just say, that it was an "interesting" week.
