I survived!

Do you ever have one of those weeks, where you get to Friday night, and you think, "Wow!! What a great week. I really accomplished a lot. I feel like such a great wife, mom, friend..."?? Well, this was so NOT one of those weeks for me!

I have dinner group friends coming over tonight. I have been so exhausted and sick this whole pregnancy, that I've barely been maintaining my housework. So, I knew last weekend that this week would have to be a cleaning week for me. I thought, "If I start on Monday, and just clean about one room per day, I can have all the cleaning done without wearing myself out!" So, that was the plan....

I should know by now not to make plans!!! Late Sunday night, Cutie Pie woke up crying. After just a couple minutes, I went to check him, to find that he was Very Warm! So, he had a fever, and refused to sleep back in his own bed. I, the pregnant one who is burning hot all the time, got to sleep with a feverish baby snuggled up to me on one side and a cuddly hubby on the other. (Not to mention the yellow lab on my feet or the cat by my head!!) Are you laughing at me??

Okay...to shorten up the story...I spent all day Monday holding a sick baby and dishing out Vitamin C to all the kids! Tuesday, Cutie Pie was still not feeling well, and I spent most of the day holding him again! So, my "all week to clean" turned into just a few days. Add on top of this the fact that my hubby got home late Tuesday, was gone Wednesday evening, and left Friday after work and won't be home until just before dinner! AAAAAAA!!! *that's me screaming* :)

But, I survived. The dishes are done. Laundry is (almost) caught up. The floors are swept. Furniture has been dusted. Bathroom is clean (thanks in part to hubby). Kids are well (thanks to God who answers prayers!)

Now, I'm off to make my Chicken Kiev. Maybe I'll start planning next week...maybe not!
