As of two or three hours ago, she does seem to be feeling somewhat better (she’s even cracked a smile or two, and babbled just a little in an oh-so-hoarse voice), so I’m crossing my fingers that tonight will be at least marginally easier than the past couple were.\u00a0 In any case, Lydia’s the only one I’ve got to get up and out the door tomorrow, so the morning should be relatively low-stress and, with any luck, after she’s left I’ll be able to crawl back into my own bed for a few more winks (praised also be work-at-home husbands who are willing to take on extra kid duty so their wives can sleep away the days).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
