So Long November!

I made it! Well, almost. I blogged 27 times this month I believe.

I'm ready to put November behind for now. It was a month of ups and downs. It feels like ages ago that we celebrated James' birthday and that Daniel and Jacob were in a car accident. Celebrating Daniel's birthday and Thanksgiving in Iowa were both very fun too!

Today was just kind of a lazy day. Yesterday I did quite a bit, so today I chilled with James and did a few small things around the house. At lunch time he wouldn't finish his food and I told him no dessert. I went in the kitchen to wash the dishes and he started having a huge tantrum. I told him he could get down, but he didn't want too. I decided it was nap time right about then! He fell asleep really fast, which is odd, but I figured the crying had worn him out.

I woke him up to go get Daniel from school and he just kept laying there until I had to pick him up out of bed and carry him to the living room. I was singing along to the radio while we were driving and it seems awfully quiet. He was asleep again! WHAT!? That never happens.

Once we got home he curled up in the recliner and wouldn't let me take off his hat, coat or shoes. He eventually came over to snuggle with me and we got the hat off. Around 3:50 I told him I had to go to my appointment. He was upset but then seemed okay. I was writing a list quickly to grab some stuff at Walmart, when he comes into the dining room looking for me and I looked up just in time to see the puke flying. Puke on the carpet, his coat and his shoes! I got it cleaned up while Jacob helped James. Ran down to start laundry and then headed out the door for physical therapy!

Thank goodness the place I go for PT is literally 2 minutes from our house!

PT was good today. Did a lot of stretches and exercises to help strengthen. Had some heat therapy and then a bit of massage therapy. I was feeling pretty good when I left, although still some twinges of pain. Plus one of the exercises kept giving me charlie horses in my hip/leg.

I didn't get to Walmart until almost 5:30, but got what I needed...until I remember something else I needed and then forgot about. I'm on day 2 of my new eating habits. I finally bit the bullet and am trying something I swore I couldn't do. I'm going low carb. Not like, extreme Keto, but trying to see if it helps. Also, I started drinking green tea. It's actually not too bad! (I can only drink it cold though. Not a big fan of hot drinks).

Got home and took a shower because I felt gross. Got the boys to bed and then finished up working on the advent calendar. Let the fun (and probably stress because this is me we're talking about), begin!
