These past several weeks for our family have been very lazy. I was starting to feel guilty and unproductive but I'm reminded how "this is a season" in our lives. I'm in the last leg of my pregnancy and have been hit with extreme fatigue again. The kids are in full football season. They have practice 3 times a week and a game a week. Although it is wonderful exercise for them (among other great things)- it's a lot of work and very tiring. A perk to homeschooling- I can allow them to get the rest their body needs by letting them sleep in. Adam has had some very serious and demanding deadlines at work that have casued him some great mental exhaustion. He just recently was able to finish the projects and get back to a normal work load, thankfully. Surprisingly, the house has been kept clean. Oh and did I mention, we are moving in a few weeks....I'm almost 100% positive that's the BIG reason the house has been able to stay clean...I've packed up nearly half the house and it's sitting in boxes in the garage....it's amazing how much stuff you collect. Even more amazing is that these boxes have been in the garage for about 3 weeks now and I couldn't tell you what's in them nor have I needed any of the items.....maybe it's time to have a donation party and get rid of them???
Anyway- this laziness has kept me from blogging. My mind is just so focused on this baby and moving that I can't think of anything creative to say. Yes, we have managed to keep up with school. But besides schoolwork and doing the absolute bare minimum in housework this family is in a season of...let's call it "a relaxation mode". ;-) |
