I’ve been so sick I haven’t been able to do much, it’s been a struggle just to keep the house liveable. Well, my doctor started me on a medication that is helping tremendously! Since Friday, I’ve cleaned my whole house, kept it up, and made dinner every night. This weekend I made my husband breakfast both days, washed the sheets, and did a TON of laundry. I also made him a lunch today to take to work. Last night, I even had time for him to teach me how to use my sewing machine, and start on a blanket for the baby…. its not too bad… it took us both some time to learn the machine, but it was good time together. We went to church yesterday… and we have been doing our best to pray at mealtime and at bedtime and other important times as a family, and read scripture together as a family. We’ve been eating meals at the table together whenever the baby is awake, so that he views it as normal…. I even got some new recipes to try so I don’t get bored cooking, and he doesn’t get bored with my cooking. I even got a recipe from his Mom for home made bread. We set up a crib in the babies room, and I have goals to organize the closet…… we had a discussion about finances and are on the same page now…

 I just feel that he goes to work and busts his butt to make money for our household, so I should be taking care of him and the house for him…. and its been so hard with all the sicknes.. but now that I’m feeling better, even a little better,and I’m able to do this, I feel so much better about myself…. and about my ability to be a good mom and wife. That does wonders for my mood and energy level… and motivation to get things done!

 Sorry.. I’m sure most of you couldn’t care less… but, it made me feel good to get that off my chest!
