It has been a VERY busy week around here! Because my husband's family is spread all over kingdom come it is hard to get everyone all together. I take the organizing of dinner and all on myself so that it actually happens every year. So, this last weekend I hosted ANOTHER Christmas dinner for about 20 people. With all the stress of having the in-laws coming into town and staying with us, preparing the house, shopping and preparing all of the food for dinner PLUS, getting the "normal" routine back, this week has kicked my booty! As I should have expected, once it was all over and the last guest had left, I started coming down with a cold. FUCK. Mommies can't get sick, especially not this mommy who's husband left on a 48 hour shift the next morning.
Monday I took a very needed lazy day. Thank G*d the kids cooperated and we ALL had a lazy day in jammies eating left over junk food. :) It was so nice! Last night though I had 2 little boys wake up. One was sick, 102 degree fever and screaming his head off about a headache. The baby was WIDE awake from 2am-4am thinking it was party time. I pray that tonight is better for ALL of us!
So, this week was supposed to be about really starting back to "normal" for my family has turned into a lazy week of trying (desperately) not to get any sicker. I guess I should use my "down" time to organize lists, craft projects, create new schedules and such for my family. There is a lot I *could* be doing and still be resting. Wish me luck! LOL
