It looks like things are rolling right along with Ida. The lawyer's drawing up the papers and should have them done by the beginning of next week. I have to take her to the eye doctor on Monday (LOADS of fun!). Last night at McKay's, I bought "Judaism for Beginners". This Baptist doesn't know much about Jewish culture, but for Ida's sake I'm thinking I better learn what Yom Kippur is since it's coming up on Thursday!
Yesterday, I kept a 2 year old, and on Wednesday I watched a 3 year old and a baby. HOW do people do this?!? These kids wore me out! I mean, maybe it'll be easier when they're actually mine because I won't worry about having to answer to somebody if they break something or get a bruise. But sometimes I worry that I'm too selfish to be a good mom. Don and I aren't in any hurry to have any, obviously.
Don met some people when he was volunteering with the Red Cross, and we may be going mini-golfing with them tonight. They were evacuated from New Orleans and were living in the shelter until it was closed, and now they're living out of an extended-stay hotel in west Knoxville. They've had a pretty rough time from what I hear. I'm really looking forward to meeting them.
Guess I'd better go start packing... only 6 days until we leave!
