The Ups And Downs

Last week for Thanksgiving was wonderful…we had an amazing time with family. My son was home for almost a full week. He had a sinus infection..but got over it quickly and was able to enjoy the entire family and he turned 23.

The entries family came over that Saturday and we had a joyous time together…but did not get one single picture which was quite disappointing.

Sunday I played in church on the keyboard and my husband stayed home sick….

Monday….I went and got my precious baby…who is still unnamed…

I have missed my Charlie so much…end even though I love my Ozzie…he loves my daughter more…and I knew that he had eyes for only my girl…so he was all hers…I missed my fluffy baby.

The rest of the week has gone down from there..:my husband has been very sick all week…and now my daughter is sick…my house should be bleached from top to bottom…

I am off to work again tomorrow…so far my immunity is kicking butt….but let’s hope it stays that way….we are supposed to have our big staff Christmas Party and I hate to reschedule it…

It is in times like these that I can easily become overwhelmed….this is when my schedule fails me. My eating habits are forcibly changed…my fitness habits are changed…and lots of things can go round…I’m grateful for the job…but wish the other didn’t suffer…

My house is a wreck…school schedule is odd since my daughter is also sick..dinner schedule is off…gym is off…and I feel like my house is a dumpster fire…:

My first day that I was completely in charge…three huge things went horribly wrong before 8:30 in the morning..

As I began to panic…and become upset with my perfect schedule in complete disaster…I realized…this can be fixed next week…so for this week…this is what it looks like…and this is what needs to happen to make this week work. I am past the age of stomp king my feet…and whining and crying….in reality, I just wanted to get off at my exhumed time and go home and hold my puppy. I wanted to grade school, clean the house and wrap presents and be all ahead of Christmas…but all I can do is hope for better next week.

For now, I look forward to Sunday…we will be keeping all of our germs at home….and we will be praying for a better week!
