So, Hubby left for a 4 day business trip today.  I'm really bored.  I certainly don't feel up to cleaning the house, so that kinda removes the ultimate mommy boredom reliever.  So I am writing a blog about how bored I am to have something to do. 

Counting my blessings

1) I'm glad I'm not on bedrest.  I have had pregnancy backache pretty bad (thus the reason not to do housework) this time around, and all last week I couldn't walk very well.  But, at least I'm not on strict orders not to get out of bed.  That would be terrible, and I'm going to be very thankful that although it's not pleasant, at least it's not any worse than it is. 

2) I'm glad the kids are all easily entertained.  It would be very frustrating to have to micro-manage them right now, and they are all being very well behaved.  If I had a 2 yr old I probably would not be sitting here able to type a blog post un-interrupted.

3) I was able to take a nice nap.  I suppose it goes along with the last post.  I would love to curl up and go back to sleep, but then my schedule would be all messed up and homeschooling would be terrible tomorrow.  Maybe that's why I feel bored.  You know how it is sometimes.  You take a nice nap, and it's so nice that you really don't wake up fully.  Then it's hard to get going the rest of the evening. 

I'm sure there are other blessings I could count.  but that's enough for now.  I'm going to go surf the web and try not to spend any money on anything unecessary.
