Feel Good Friday - a very fun post designed by Erica, The Girl Next Door, to remind us of our blessings - the good stuff! We do all need to remember there are good things in our life, not just the stressful.
It's that time again...
Oh, Thank the Good Lord (s?) (Goddesses???) Above - It's the last day of the work week
This week has physically kicked my ass...
Although, mentally it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be
a little stressful, dealing with the afterschool program, but not too bad!
And although I lost my inhaler, and ran out of the other inhaler...Even though the week seemed to craw by at times....Even though my car broke down one day before my job started back up...
Even though I was in more pain than usual...
I'm still breathing,
and the week is still coming to an end,
and my daughter-in-law made sure I got to work everyday,
and once in a while the pain meds worked.
Hallelujiah!
Sometimes, I felt a little overwhelmed - but I took it one problem at a time
(really, what else can you do?)
Other times, it felt like I was being stalked by both teachers and parents who wanted their kids in the afterschool program....
there are over 500 kids in our school, and we only can serve 120 children - of which 100 are returning from the previous year....
see the problem?
they really need at least two other programs to happen here...
But when I came home each night, there was my dog and or a grandchild and we did a lot of this...(picture the above, only with an old tired woman, a puppy, and a boy or girl granchild---and lots of books and barbies strung ALL OVER THE BED and COUCH)
It was all I could do once I got home, but toddlers and preschoolers are pretty good at adapting their play.
They're just as happy crawling all over grandma, or laying by me for reading or barbies!
It's all good!
is it bad that i feel that the grandkids are the only things that can get me moving around- (sometimes, no all the time)?
there are times when I like them a LOT better than my other family members, then I feel kind of like a bad wife and mom. For a while - LOL
Good Times!!!
