Happy Homemaker 2022-02-07

Good morning!

Last week was another busy teleweek with all new tasks... sigh!  I do like routine too.  They did confirm I would have a promotion... in 1 or 2 months... will be official when it is signed off.

Had Xavier from Friday (supper) until Sunday (supper).  Anne-E was here Saturday through Sunday (supper).  Had been a full 2 weeks without seeing them as they had covid.

On Friday night Xavier awoke frequently crying, so we ended up having him sleep in bed with us.  As soon as I'd hug him he'd fall back asleep (... not so with me ;)).  Saturday he slept very well.  However Anne-E slept well during the day but Saturday night was not so good, she cried alot (did not recognize the place and 1st time sleeping here without her parents).  I was with her from 9:15 to 10:30pm., then dh took my place and he slept with her downstairs while I stayed upstairs with Xavier.  We did have fun with them here.

On my mind

I have a big file to deliver for work (in fact delivered it Friday but had to call it back after it was deployed to 1500 people... sigh... there was a mistake in the automated report), so even though I don't work Monday morning, I will take an hour to revise it, in case the com-person delivers it on Monday.
