Marj. thought I was tired though, so didn't urge me to wash the dishes and as she was tired out herself she went to sleep on the couch and neither of us woke up till after midnight so by the time we got the baby fed and had a prolonged argument before I consented to wash my feet it was three a.m. before we got to bed. I never felt so useless in my life, but I got the strawberries covered which I wouldn't have done if I had been sober. It has been a beautiful day, fairly hot in the sun but east wind.
