5 Year Journal Day 72

     Today's prompt is " Where do you live?" We live in Oak Island, NC.

     It is 7:41 a.m. here. Caleb has been waking up every hour or so since 4:30 this morning. First it was for an ear ache, next diarrhea, then Bella begging, and finally to ask to go for a walk.
     Yesterday went well. I went to my dental appointment and brought Caleb to the waiting room without a problem. I found out that my gums were looking better since last time, and that it's not necessary to come back in 3 months like originally expected. I am going back in 5 months instead. I have a broken filling that they are going to replace then.
     Yeah, I guess that was my day because I came home after that and made a hot meal for the day. I ate and went to nap. I really didn't feel like getting back up but Caleb woke me up. He doesn't understand that I don't sleep like he does at night. I don't get a whole night's rest.
     Today we are supposed to be working on the house together. I have offered Caleb the ability to earn $1 per hour of labor. He has accepted. That means he earns money for his Hot Wheels collection! So, we will see how it turns out. So far he is already lively and I am just not. I gave him his night time medication early last night because I wanted to go to sleep already. I was just so tired. He is already going for a walk. He should be back in  a little while.
     I figured out why it was feeling so warm and stale in here. Caleb moved the vent to the window unit from pointing up. It needs to point up to reach across the room. I'm going to talk to him about it when he gets back.
     Ahhh!!! Air conditioning!!! I feel so much better. I'm drinking my Dew, and I should be ready to start after I take my morning medications.
     Oh. I need to plan dinner for tonight too. I didn't take any meat out of the freezer, so I will have to cook in the crock pot. I told Caleb that if it rained today, and cooled off outside, we could make fish fillets and tater tots in the oven, then bake brownies! We just can't do that in 100 degree weather.
