Jessies' Visit

As per our usual Sunday schedule Jessie was here. Gary has been frustrated that I have not done more with her when she is here. They usually watch a movie, and childrens movies are really not my thing I can't stand sitting through one. I know I should spend more time with her, but shushing her during a movie doesn’t really sound like quality time to me.

I came up with a brilliant idea today – have Jessie surf Disney.com while I worked (ok, played) on my computer. Since they are both at separate desks in our office, I was right there to get her out of jams and we talked the entire time she was ‘surfing’.

It was enjoyable and she did occasional ‘fly bys’ to see Gary – so everyone was involved and spending time with each other. And for all you out there going ‘She is on the computer on Sunday?’ Hell yeah – it keeps me sane.

I snapped a few photos of her while she was here. She looks thinner to me, but I see her every week. Let me know if you think she looks like she is losing weight. She is on a restricted diet and I think it is working (and the fact that she cannot raid the pantry at RSS).

I like the photo. It is very difficult to get a good picture of Jessie so I will take what I can get.

Four nights ago I had a horrific night of very unsettling dreams. I cannot really remember all of them but I know that some included Jessie and I woke very disturbed. It has haunted me enough for the past 3 nights that I have avoided going to bed. The first night I didn’t go at all and the other two I went to bed between three and four and was up by seven since my dreams in the daytime are never good.

I couldn’t put my finger on what was bothering me, but I was just anxious about her, so seeing her today - looking well dressed, clean, etc, having her give me a tour of her room, finding everything there and in its place helped me a great deal. I haven’t gone so far as to say sleep is an option … but I am getting there …
