Today

I've been listening to a lot of audio books as mentioned. I just listened A Dirty Job by Christopher Moore. That was a great book with excellent witty dialogue and a very interesting story. It got a little long 2/3 of the way through but the finish was great.

I am currently listening to Lost Boys by Orson Scott Card. I've never wanted to be a Mormon so much in my life. He's a great writer and gets you really involved in the family of the main characters who are Mormons. They are struggling in a new town and he hints at some sinister doings which I haven't figured out yet.

Elanor is in daycare today while I work on the yard and school work. I took a nap which has left me feeling fuzzy and a bit unreal. Hopefully the coffee will break through soon.

I've been feeling more lovey toward Ela lately. I think it's because she's started to hug me. Also, I've been looking for a locket to keep some of her hair in. I think I'm starting to tap into a world of love and tenderness for her that I could loose myself in. It's kind of bittersweet to think about.

Erik is still gone but will be back in a week. I've missed him. It's easier to think when he's here. Ela looks for him upstairs, in his office and on my headphones. Funny.
