But I wasn't
I had been feeling like I was coming down with a cold for a few days. So I had been taking some sinus medications at night before going to sleep. I had been feeling ridiculously drowsy and wasn't sure why. So I decided to stay at home. Since Josh was giving Elsy's husband a guitar lesson in the basement, I decided to take the sinus medication and lie in bed with the laptop watching clips about the Duggars ( IM SO mad TLC won't post full episodes of 19 kids and counting GRR).
Around 7:15, I suddenly felt like I had been punched in the face with a tranquilizer. I decided it was best to stop watching Duggar stuff, take out my contacts and lie down.
The next time I woke up was Josh asking me if I was ok. I then began to try to explain what was going on, in a thick drugged up voice, apologizing for the fact that I needed to stay in bed and sleep.
I am seriously the worst at self medicating. Sorry excuse for a nurse. I just take whatever I think is going to work the best. This isnt the first time I have had weird experiences. You would think that I had learned by now but no.....
Friday night Josh and I went out on a lovely date and ate amazing food - not sure it was all that weight watchers friendly, but since I did lose a pound I guess it wasn't as bad as I thought.
My inlaws came for the weekend and we had a very nice time. My mother in law always brings lots of food and its always good. She also brought her amazing carrot cake which I ate only 1 ( and a bite) piece of. That requires a level of discipline that I can't even describe to you.
Sophia has somehow got it in her head that Dave and Sue are both Grandma. She was running around babbling grandma repeatedly. It was kind of funny. Naturally, shortly after they left she finally said grandpa.
We are on the road to finally joining a small group. We have to take a three week class at church to find out about their beliefs and the way they run the church. Its kind of the stepping stone to deciding whether or not you really want to go to the church. So far so good.
Sophia decided that she is going to be potty trained. We were hoping to wait til Christmas, but no. Potty has become her favourite word. She wants to be on it alot. And everytime she says it, she really does go - or i have left her too long and she has gone in her diaper. Today she has had one wet diaper so far. She wears cloth so she usually has gone through quite a few by now. The one issue I am having is that she will sometimes pee a tiny bit. I will leave her on for a few more minutes, she insists she is done and then a short time later she wants to go again. She actually does too. So I am a bit at a loss. Its frustrating because poor Elisa is getting left alone more than I would like. Any suggestions would be wonderful....
Oh, heres another reason to use cloth - its much easier to fashion a pair of underware out of a cloth diaper and pull it on like underware when they are done with the potty, than try to wrestle with them and put a disposable diaper on. Especially if you have a child like mine who is determined to grab the potty seat and play with it or "fix" it to go back on the toilet seat the way they think it should go.
Its kind of exciting and she looks soooo happy when she goes. I cant believe my kids are growing up so fast.....
Now I need to listen to last sundays sermon and try to stop eating carrots. Im turning into a rabbit.
