that was yesterday. what a doozie. half of the fam has been under-the-weather with some sort of freak summer cold (who gets a cold in the summer?!). i had one of those days, and i haven't had one in a long time. mind you, 'long time' is relative- i did have a baby six months ago. but you know exactly which kind of day i am talking about-the one when you don't shower til 4pm, don't brush your teeth until the man-o-the-house is on his way home, and the kids watch tv for at least six hours (probably more like eight). i usually don't like those days because most of the time they are accompanied with some sort of inner guilt (the my-kid's-minds-will-become-mush kind of guilt). but yesterday was different for some reason. even though i was feeling crummy i enjoyed hanging out with my daughters. we watched animal cops and scooby doo, and i also organized their room which was way over due. it gave me that 'i just cleaned out the refrigerator feeling'. (sigh). it was relieving not to run any errands or have anywhere to go. we vegged out, and it was nice to be at home. it reminded me that my home is my haven from the world.
today was back to normal-busy errands, swim lessons and lots of things to get done.
but yesterday was good. maybe i shouldn't brush my teeth til 6pm more often (eew).
and now i am happy to report that we are all on the mend.
