Okay, so i think there should be some natural law that stipulates that mothers cannot be sick. I went to work for about an hour this morning and then came home. You would think after sleeping for four hours that I would feel better. NO, I only felt worse. My husband happened to be home but he didn’t must not have noticed how very badly I felt because he didn’t volunteer to go do my carpool for me. Although, I don’t think his mind was on me because he started his new position tonight and I think he was nervous.

I jumped into school just fine. I think I expected to be more overwhelmed with the work than I am. However, i think that because I am so very overwhelmed with the kids’ evening schedule that homework and work is a nice relief. Today I am a little stressed because I have been home all day, probably home tomorrow, and this is the first time I have sat down at my computer. I could have had all my homework done by now but that would take more than this little flu bug is going to give me at this moment in time.

Other than being sick I cannot complain. That’s not saying that I couldn’t sit here and think of things to complain about but I know that the ship is running smoothly and that God is with me so it’s all good. In the next 10 or 15 minutes I will be in bed for the evening, peeking on the kids occassionally. I don’t think I am going to eat. Doesn’t sound like a good idea. The stove isn’t working so the kids had chips, fruit, and sandwiches for lunch. I felt bad, they thought it was a cool treat. Bologna sandwiches would sure be a cheaper substitute (and easier) than what I try to give them for dinner.

I do keep thinking about the book though. I have 300 devotions (roughly) wriitten, which is probably enough for a book by now. I dread going through and editing/fixing my early morning typing errors. I think I have chosen the publisher I go through but now it’s time to get the $$ together so this may never happen. LOL.  I don’t know what is going to happen with the book but I do know I supposed to put one out there. I am starting to feel guilty or something for not having it done already. God very plainly told me to do this. Maybe God is trying to nudge me.

Okay, my son is 12 today. I guess I am just dumbfounded that he could possibly be that old.

This weekend was great. We got to spend a lot of time with our friends, our daughter got a part in a children’s musical, I got to lay around the house a lot, we had great family time, saw fireworks, had a date, and I got the house kind of clean and all the laundry washed and put away in the same day.

Tonight I have two meetings, neither of which I am looking forward to since they overlap a bit. I totally dislike nights when I have to drag the kids here and there. I guess things seem easier when I am getting dragged. We’ll see how the night goes.
