5 AM
Because of all the horrible, healing things being done to my body its often not possible for me to workout so when I am able, I don't miss. Today was the first time I have attempted legs & abs in well over two months. Progress!
I'm thankful for my home gym, partly because I can nurse my first cup of coffee during the "water" breaks. :) Do you know about FitnessBlender? Its free and SO versatile...good for when you are training for a marathon or going through extensive cancer treatments.
My second cup of coffee happens on my porch with my Bible.
He's been good about waking up on his own for school, but we had a late bedtime the night before.
8 AM
After walking the kids to school, I go in to check if they made their beds. If they did, I leave a candy on the bed for them to find. I know it sounds similar to training a puppy with dog biscuits, but it works like a charm.
9 AM
True confessions: I'm not one of those people who cannot go to bed unless the sink is empty and the counters are wiped. In fact, I can sleep quite well with dinner dishes left undone. At my house, it can wait until morning.
10 AM
I joined Shaun at the office to answer the phone and greet walk-ins so he could get some work done. It works well since I have access to a computer and can get my work done. Feels so great to be working some!
2 PM
Ahh...but then there's still the other part of my life where the visiting nurse comes to see me several times a week. Today was a new-to-me nurse because my regular nurse had an emergency. This new nurse said she's heard all about "the lady with the wound vac in [my town]" around the office and I was not at all what she was expecting. I didn't get a chance to ask her, but now I'm curious...what was she expecting??
Also, she loved, loved our house and asked for a tour. Good thing I'm bribing my kids with candy to make their beds. ;)
3 PM
R brought DQ for the kids as a special treat and then played with them for a few minutes. They were happy to see him and interact...he works second-shift so now that they're in school they don't see him much.
4 PM
I've been picking away at culling my office. I had no idea what was in these two boxes taking up shelf space. It was a mix of treasures, garbage, and eBay items to sell.
6 PM
My guys.
Love the B&W! You are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteSince there are just two of us we can go a few days without doing dishes (well, I guess I should say that we often DO go a few days - we probably shouldn't - ha!). My mother would be freaking out. Maybe that's why I do it? :)
ReplyDeleteIf you were described as "a lady" then she was probably expecting someone more my age than yours :)
I love the pic of the clean sink! Haha! Really love that R brought DQ home, so sweet!
ReplyDeleteGreat parenting with the treats on bed - whatever works - jealous I didn't think of thst years ago - we did have a dress the bed rule and dress down to the shoes rule so we we were always ready if someone came over or we had to jump in car quick - tell R hi and give him a hug for me - been ages since I saw him. Sweet reflection of a typical day - as always thanks for sharing.
