My list has been thrown up into the air and has blown away in the wind lately – ever since we made the decision to get a new puppy in the middle of trying to get my husband’s cataracts removed.
We only have one more appointment with the eye doctor and my husband is feeling fine and getting his energy back now. He is being a big help with the puppy now, so I’m not feeling quite as fried every night way before it’s time for bed.
Today I called our dirt guy to tell him we were functional now and to please put us on the list to clear the land for our planned greenhouse, as well as repair our driveway. Happily, he MIGHT be able to work our projects in this afternoon!. We have some errands to run, but we shouldn’t be gone long and will be home to receive his call if he can, indeed, come today. :0)
- I want to get back to doing a session of yoga every day.
- I want to take some time to play in my art room.
- I want to be able to sit and read a book for awhile.
- I want to be able to take a nap.
Now that my husband is recovering, I’m feeling more able to call on him to give me a bit of time and space to regain my sanity. I’m delighted that we adopted Amber, but she is a double handful of extremely active puppy. I find that I’m a much better ‘mom’ to her when I can get my act together a bit between sessions.
So I’m ‘adjusting accordingly’ right now, and hoping to get a little bit of my normal life back soon.
