Entry for November 21, 2006 Better than yesterday
I feel better than I did yesterday. I haven't had to take any nausea med today, just for the persistent headache. I'm hoping that I can go back to work on Mon. after Sunshine's appt, or before I can't remember when it is. Last night we went to Wally world, I had to get out of the house. I was very sore when we got home, I think that I'm carrying an 25 pound kid... He's going to come out and already be 18 mo. old. Sunshine was coughing a lot last night, finally I decided he needed a treatment to get some sleep, or so we could all get some sleep. He didn't see affected by the fact that he was coughing, nor did Duck. Of course when your stuck in the middle of a cough and a loud (lion size) snore, it tends to get a little nerve racking at 1 am. So I gave him his treatment, and presto - no cough, then I told Duck to turn over so it would muffle the noise. Sunshine has a speech appt today at 3:30, at this rate he will sleep through the whole thing. I'm going to have to get him to lay down in about 15 minutes so he can get his two hours in, and I can pick up some of the mess. I finally got the mega blocks put away from Sunday...I love that the kids enjoy to build so much, and I don't mind putting them away. Even though sunshine is very good at puzzles and problem solving, he can't even get them all back in there. We found out that we are going to have to buy a new car seat for MC, the one what we had was in the basement and apparently there is too much moisture down there. There was so much mold on it that it made my stomach turn. After what we went through in the last house I can't stand the sight of mold in this one. Dad said to spray the basement down with bleach, let it air dry via fans and such and then seal the entire basement. Duck has his work cut out for him. We (MC, Sunshine and I) will just have to leave for a day or so. Maybe that is what I'll ask for - for Christmas, that project to be completed so I don't have to worry about it anymore. Okay, well lunch is done and I think I'm going to match up the socks while I eat. I have two loads left and I will again be complete with laundry. I only have MC's drawers to go through and the 2T clothes to store and I will be done with putting it all away as well...not to rub it into anyone's face, this has been a struggle for me, and my goal for myself was to never allow this to happen again. I grew up throwing dirty clothes in the washer right before bed and in the dryer when I got up in the morning so I'd have something to wear. I don't want to live like that, I don't want to live out of my dryer or in the mess that I grew up with. I want my children to play, learn and clean, but to have fun and not find it so much of a chore...I guess that's what I mean. Cleaning is an everyday part of life, if you leave one room, take something out that doesn't belong and put it away, on your way back in, take something in that belongs in that room and put it away. That's how I'm going to try to work it, I'll let you know.
Wish me luck~! Katy
