This past week
This past week, work was OK. Nothing bad happened, but it really got in the way of being the Daddy I really want to be; the Daddy that is home more hours than not.+-=+-=+-=+-=+-=+-=+-=+-=+-=+-=+-
Tuesday night we had auditions for our Middle School musical.
This kept me away from home until just after 8:30.
I missed putting my daughter to bed.
She went to sleep just fine, but when she stirred at about 11PM, she realized Daddy wasn't home when she went to sleep; so she screamed for me. I got her back to sleep, but she repeated this pattern about once every 45 - 65 minutes.

Wednesday, I went in to work. From those of you who are familiar with my luck with sleep and work, you may have already guessed what happened.
Wednesday was the day my High School Principal "Observed" my class (the annual job-performance review). Everything went OK; it was just a shame she didn't catch me on a GOOD day. She got me on a "neutral" day, at best.

Today, I had to spend the whole day at a Chorus Festival. It's not a hard task, but I'd rather be home. I would've even left already, but the ONE student I brought does not have parents coming to get him. So - instead of me getting home at 8:30 or 9 PM, I won't be home until 9:45 to 10:15 PM. I'm pretty sure Eve will be asleep by then.
Hopefully we won't repeat Tuesday's deal.
