Well writing every week has been a harder goal to maintain than I originally thought. Since my last post 2 weeks ago, I've been going nonstop. There were ball practices and Kaitlyn's tournament last weekend, work has been busy as usual and of course trying to stay on track with work-outs. Luckily, since my post about my struggle with the work-out thing, my sweet husband got my treadmill back. It has made its way throughout the family but has finally come home to me! Doing the weight machine definitely works my muscles but walking/jogging on the good ol' treadmill just leaves me feeling like I've done more for some reason. Maybe it's because I actually break a sweat and feel like I'm going to die by the time I get off that thing!
This week also found my husband with a pulled neck muscle. I know he is really hurting when he actually agrees to see a doctor! He seems to be doing a little better now but may need to see an orthopedic doctor if not completely better by the end of the week. When we picked up Kaitlyn Friday, she was feeling bad too...allergies and low-grade fever. Chicken soup and tylenol every few hours have worked their magic and she was feeling up to church this morning.
She was not up to softball practice yesterday but last night we went outside for a bit and she was hitting the ball as I threw it to her and she hit one right into my leg! Now I have a lovely black and blue calf and I think she felt worse about it than I did because I had to keep telling her it was ok and it was just an accident. The good thing about being homebound yesterday was that I got so much done. The cleaning fairy in me really came out! Bathtubs and sinks scrubbed, dresser drawers organized with Spring clothes, all laundry done, complete house vacumed/swept! Even made some hamburger soup in the crock pot which turned out excellent, if I do say so myself.
Now today we are just taking it easy and getting ready for another busy week. It's Spring break and Makayla is leaving tomorrow to go with her grandmother to Great Wolf. I'm excited for her but a little sad since this is her first out-of-town trip without me. When she gets back we'll have more t-ball practice and her Opening Ceremony is this coming weekend. After that we'll have games every week through the end of May! I made out a calendar and there are some weeks we have games 4 nights a week. It's crazy busy sometimes but I love it and wouldn't change a thing (except maybe there could be a REAL cleaning fairy)!
