Life Is Good

Last week we were adjusting to a new work schedule for The Hubby! He is working nights and sleeping during the day. I was feeling like we had just come off of two great school weeks back after Christmas Break and then last week was a crash nothing was going as planned. At one point I told my Husband I don't think we can come back from this half joking half serious! He replied we will rise from the ashes Babe :) and sure enough this week although it isn't quite the schedule we had a few weeks ago we have adjusted and school work is getting done. Life is so fluid when you have the freedom to adjust as you go. Monday we had to cancel out of guitar and allow the kids time to rest, I am a firm believer that sometimes you can ward of sickness with MORE REST! Also we took a hard look at Hallee's interest in ballet and decided that she just isn't into it and forcing it wasn't helping so she is bowing out gracefully in all fairness to her teachers and classmates. Not sure if dancing in a structured class just isn't her thing or if it is a phase but at any rate, I see relief in her and myself that we just decided not to do it anymore. And I know that soon it will change and we will be adjusting to something else! We bought a couple homedics sound spas, one so that my husband can sleep in the darkened room we created and we can kinda move around as normal in the house. We still need to keep it down! Once my Daughter laid eyes on it she wanted one so I picked one up for her, last night I heard crickets, that is the Summer Night sound and I wondered if it would actually call in crickets ;) Hehe! I see sick people everywhere and I am working like mad to keep our family healthy in this season of sickness! Hubby text me from work the other night and said there was a guy in the break room throwing up, the germaphobe in me went crazy, I lined up the shots of oregano oil and made each of the kiddos take one, ordered more, then had one waiting for him when he came home from work. That night at dinner I made everyone another shot and I started singing shots shot shots shots the song by LMFAO and I had them all laughing tell they cried, since the song is pretty vulgar my Kiddos hadn't heard it, so I YouTube'd it for them and I think that is what made them laugh tell they cried. My middle Son did the whole pace palm :) they wanted to know how I can have a song for every occasion. Our science talk for today was Urine, Yes Urine, I explained to them that in reality urine should be mostly clear or very slightly yellow LOL! That if their urine was bright yellow they needed to drink more water, to hydrate! What can I say no matter what I will create a learning lesson out of it! You just have to enjoy the chaos that is our daily lives! Keep Calm & Mom On!
