First thing this morning Betsy woke up crying and said her ears hurt. We made an appointment, drove in to Houston, confirmed double ear infections, drove back to Sugar Land, had lunch with a friend, ran something over to another friend who’d been so kind as to pick me up some salad for me for dinner at the store, went to pick up Betsy’s medication, and finally came home where we quickly got in to bed for naps.
The place we went for lunch is next to this great big green space and fountain which is fun but also terrible. All they wanted to do was run along the edge of the fountain and make me nervous or lean as far over as they could toward the water. They also had no desire to leave, which makes things fun…
