Sorry No pictures....camera is broke.

I would love to put pictures on my blog again, but our camera broke on Christmas. Can you believe the luck? So I will make do without it until we get our tax return so we can purchase a new one.
Carys is still slow at getting better, she has good days and bad. She did ok yesterday, but was up most of the night still not feeling well. She still has all those canker sores in her mouth that causes her to not eat, which is fine the doctor said not to worry about food focus on liquids, however when your kid hasn't eaten hardly anything since last Wednesday they start to get sicker. She is sick to her stomach constantly because she hasn't eaten and she only drinks a limited amount. I feel so sorry for her and helpless. Today however seems to be going well. She ate some breakfast, she had ice cream, and hasn't complained once about her mouth or anything else for that matter. I hope we are moving past this for her sake. (keep your fingers crossed for me)
I've also come to the conclusion that I cant do it all. I try sometimes, ok all the time. I try to make sure that everything is done and everything is put away, cleaned, in drawers etc...and I realize that with a sick kid, total lack of sleep, a baby, and a two year old, yay, I cant do it all, the odds are stacked against me. Now don't get me wrong things are done, my kids are clean, fed and happy and that to me is most important, but there are toys on the living room floor, and a few dishes in the sink, and laundry baskets still on my couch with clean clothes that are ready to be put away, theres always something right? However, its not just my home. I think of the things I wish I could do and I don't have the time or energy at night when my kids go to sleep, I have officially short circuited so to speak. I wish I had more time to write, I love to write. Scrap booking, organize pictures, clean storage room, go grocery shopping (need food), get in a bath, see more movies, did I mention write? Anyway, I understand that when you have kids you sacrifice, I wouldn't have it any other way, I just like to bring these things up, because eventually I want to bring back some of my passions that I haven't had for awhile. Id like to be able to do these things and do them well, not half $%* so to speak. You know?
So I am doing something, our Ward has a Card Swap once a month where you make up 15 cards of the theme that month and everyone else does to, and then you swap them...and you get cards to give away at the same time, great idea huh? So my friend Shanell suggested I start this. So I am going to and I am very excited to do something that I love and bring in some creativity to my life...LOL...sad...but if this will do it I am for it.
FYI I also got to watch the new Cheetah Girls movie last night with my girls, I know you are all jealous...it was pretty good. It didn't drive me completely crazy as the others have in the past, or perhaps that's just because I haven't seen it 200 times yet...any hoo....don't be hatin' cause I saw it already...lol
Have a great day!

Just remember that you aren't super-woman and if you try you will just ware yourself out and not be good for anyone and then you will get sick also. Remember that life will happen if the house is clean or not. Take a break and relax. lol

About Me

I am a happy reader...Im such a sucker for a good book. I get lost, and I become one with the story, its my greatest outlet. I needed somewhere to express and vent my feelings about how I felt about my books I was reading and this is where my blog was born.
