Lazy Day

It's a quiet Sunday afternoon. My girls are watching Pollyanna. The little guy is playing with his Buzz Lightyear behind my chair. Every so often you hear a little cry of "NOT today!!" He calls out all the little Toy Story quotes as he plays LOL.

When I dropped him off at his SS class he cried and clung to me. This was highly unusual for him. His teacher said he cried for quite a while. When I picked him up after church we had church conference (some call it business meeting). It wasn't very long yet he almost fell asleep. I noticed he was scratching and when I lifted his shirt he was all broken out in a rash. Since we've been home he obviously doesn't feel so great but he isn't running any fever. I am wondering if it could possibly be a light case of chicken pox. He has had his immunizations. I suppose time will tell. Just in case, I think I am going to stay home from church with him tonight. He won't be happy about that. We usually go out to eat with friends afterwards.

I've been working on cleaning out and organizing. My poor husband has to put up with me rearranging furniture when I get in these moods! But I am pleased with the results so far. It feels good to reevaluate things every so often. Where things aren't working you can change it up. where things just don't feel peaceful you can rearrange. it's also nice to have everything clean and fresh. Speaking of which, if you have never tried the Mr. Clean Gain scent, you are missing out! It smells so good and the scent is pretty long lasting.

But for today, it is rest. And I am falling asleep at the computer so I think it is time for some sure enough rest!

The Season of Pregnancy (updated)

I know. I have been neglecting this blog. Horribly. That's not the only thing that has been thrown by the wayside lately! It is only for a season though. Pregnancy means you must be patient with yourself and accept that sometimes you must let things slide. That also means that you have to plan in order to conserve your energy. I know if I am going somewhere later today then I don't need to rush around and try to get a lot done in the morning. Priorities must be in order. Although the morning sickness is better it isn't totally gone at this point. Whoever named it that anyway? The main thing I have been dealing with is fatigue. My blog shows it. My laundry shows it. My house shows it. Ack, everywhere shows it! I simply do not have the energy to do the bending up and down required to truly clean up, do laundry, and the vacuuming/sweeping etc. It's quite depressing actually! So I do a little here, do a little there. I manage the necessities such as homeschooling, cooking, ...

Latest on GuitarMan

I haven't made a practice of sharing photos with a full facial view on here. However the GuitarMan isn't too worried about that LOL! With many of you praying for him I thought you might like to have an idea of who he is. He is still in a lot of pain. His fingers are all black and blue and his entire hand is swollen. His hand is cut straight across his fingers and across the bottom of his hand. Once again, very obvious what could have happened. He's blown away by everyone caring and checking in him and the prayers on his behalf. He says to thank you all!

Baby Steps

Hope you've had a good day today. We have been having some lovely autumn weather at our house! Yet I still have the urge to get the Christmas decorations out. Normally I am one of those people who likes to get Thanksgiving completed before moving on into the Christmas festivities. But there is just something about this year that has me ready to get all of the holidays going and squeeze out all the wonder. So my house now has icicle lights hung 3/4 of the way across the front. It's a small start but still an official start! I can't wait for the holiday cooking shows on Food network and the Christmas romantic comedy movies to begin. We also did a little rearranging today along with some cleaning out. I am going through the children's things and doing away with broken toys or the things that just don't interest them. I still have a ways to go until I can check "satisfied" or "completed" on my mental list. But still, like the Christmas lights, I can ...
