Today, I went with family to the rodeo for real. We walked a lot and saw and did a lot, and it was s great time. It was also too much time for me to be walking around, carrying the baby almost the whole time. Sometimes even carrying the baby and the very heavy backpack diaper bag. (I’m thinking I need to sort out a lighter bag for when I will be on my own with the baby and need to carry everything myself.) My cousin and I were all for my just using the stroller, but my mom really felt it would be easier not to have it, and she said she’d handle the backpack, so I accepted her desired plan of action. It didn’t always turn out, however, especially given that I carried both for the first hour-ish.
Anyway, it was a good time, but was very hard on me by the end. We went into the whole rodeo, though, so I feel fully satisfied with having gone in person this year – I don’t need to do it again. Perhaps we’ll go visit the club, but I needn’t go into the stadium again this year.
Anyway, I’m exhausted and must sleep now. Goodnight.
Thank you, God, for the good time and for the good and helpful behavior of our kids. Make us well, please, and keep us safe. Heal my daughter’s digestive issues, please. In your name, I pray. Amen.
