Lighter Notes

Yesterday we became one helper short. It seems as though the moment Janice left, everything became chaotic. For the first time since we arrived back home, Emily and I were all alone-three fussing babies and only four hands. This was it, this was how it was going to be. The sky seemed to darken and the chills from outside seemed to seep through the walls. Emily and I gazed into each others fearful eyes… Ok it wasn’t this dramatic, I just wanted to have some fun. But really, ironically the time Janice left was the time of day where the babies have their fussy time. It lasted for an hour or two until KC finally came home. They just cried for no reason-very frustrating. All was well when the evening arrived. We had time to relax and take a deep breath. But around 8 o’clock something happened that changed our entire…night. We put them in their cribs IN their room and they slept all through the night waking up only twice to eat. We even had time to watch the LOST premiere! I’ve come up with a plan to distribute shifts-from 9 to midnight, KC will be on call when one wakes up. Then, from midnight to 3, I will be on call, then from 3 to 6 Emily is on call. I think it will work perfectly because we can all sleep in our beds, and only get up for 20 minutes to feed. We’ve even come up with a S.O.S. code-three knocks means I need a helper, six knocks means I need both of you cause all three are awake. I will report back on the results of this plan later.

We got to go to the Annapolis mall on Friday, what an adventure that was! We all had the babies strapped to us, and they actually did very well!

Now, I’d like to discuss for a sentence or five, my thoughts on the premiere of abc’s LOST. I had predicted that it would steer back to the beginning where all the passengers of flight 815 are on the plane again and it doesn’t crash! Well here’s what happened, it started out with the passengers on the plain as they were on September 22, 2004 but this time, instead of Rose panicking about the turbulence, it was Jack. Significant? I think YES! It was a twist indeed. What should’ve happened had the plane not crashed happened including landing in Los Angeles safe and sound. Only question I have, is this a flashback or a flash forward with all memories of the survivors forgotten, as if all they’ve been through never happened, there is time travel so maybe it took them back to Australia when they first boarded the plane. Why is Shannon not on the plane with her brother boone? So many questions, but I look forward to the unveiling of long time questions as this season continues and will eventually end for good. Long live LOST!

  2. Thanks for the details on the crib sleeping! Brilliant idea for all adults sleeping in your own beds. Good luck!! I miss everyone - still hearing bits of lullabies in my mind while sleeping. Must get over that.
