A Forced Day of Laziness

Not a lot to say today.

Jacob had to leave really early this morning for musical practice and won't be home for another hour or so still. It's just been Daniel and I hanging out today. I woke up at 5:00 and never fell back to sleep, but I didn't get out of bed until 8! I'm not in pain when I'm sitting or laying down, and Daniel slept in so I just relaxed.

Got him up, pottied and changed and then got breakfast ready. All that moving around hand me gimping along. It is not fun having pain shooting down into your thigh! It's hard to reach up for things too. If I stand up too much I get a searing pain...but if I walk around like the Hunchback of Notre Dame I seem to be okay.

I left Daniel in the highchair and turned on Netflix on the computer so I could take a shower. The shower didn't last long. I got out fast because it just hurts to stand. I tried to straighten my hair and had to sit down 3 times before I decided I didn't care. I wasn't going anywhere anyway!

Then we hung out and watched more Netflix. I was able to play with him some though, but I was just trying to keep him contained so I could relax.

We had lunch and then I got the little dude down for his nap. I got his laundry folded that has been in his basket since yesterday, and then just laid on the couch and watched TV.

I am thankful that my mom is willing to make the drive over here and help me this week if I need her. I'm not one to really ask for help often, but this morning I after my shower I just kept thinking, "How am I going to do it this week!?" I'm off work this week for sure. Jacob is the director of the musical and the performance is next weekend, so he's under a lot of stress and exhausted when he's home. When I'm just sitting or laying I feel fine and think I won't need help. But, at some point we'll need groceries and I don't think I can carry the bags and milk jugs! We'll see though. Maybe I'll be feeling a little better tomorrow!

I have potato soup in the crock pot that smells so yummy. And we're renting a movie for after Daniel goes to bed. Maybe we can even throw some ice cream in the mix. Who knows?
