We had a good day today. I woke up feeling so sick that I was afraid I was getting the flu. I rested for a bit and started to feel better. So maybe it was just random, third trimester morning sickness?
I rested in the morning, while I was still feeling yucky, but then we got moving. We did morning jobs, washed and folded several loads of laundry, homeschooled, did music lessons and practiced piano, tidied the house, had dinner, family prayer and scripture study before Daddy left for work, made an after-dinner trip to Costco (which included unloading and organizing tons of food and food storage), and finally I gave the puppy a bath after the kids were in bed. The day was full, and I am tired.
But, tired or not, I still don’t feel ready to sleep. I feel lonely. So far Rick’s night schedule hasn’t been too bad. I feel safe in our home at night, Sophie (the puppy) follows me everywhere and keeps me company, and by morning I usually have 3 or 4 kids snuggled in bed with me. But I still miss my husband so much! I am glad that work weeks are short- our weekend actually starts tomorrow!
