Carries mother is heading down from Da Nort\' Woods sometime today to see Olivia. We\'re really hoping, as are they, that the weather holds out for a bit. Her sister is heading over on Saturday to do the first ever \"babysitting\" tasks for us. We will be heading downtown to see \"The Phantom of the Opera\" which is something that we\'ve wanted to see for quite some time.

Needless to say, we\'re worried sick and feeling guilty as hell about leaving her for even that short period of time. I am sure all will be well and that every new parent feels this way the first time they leave their child for a night out, but still...its not easy.

Anyhow, after waiting 30 minutes to drive 2 miles, I should probably get some work to do...
