Busy Few Days

I've been busy the last few days. Thursday was supposed to be Create and Play with MOMS Club but the other mom that does it with me one of her kids was sick so we ended up postponing it till this Thursday. That was ok with me though because I had a headache and didn't have anything to take for it. I kept forgetting to pick some up and hubby was already at work when I started to get the headache. (He works afternoons). So that's why I didn't post anything on Thursday because of my headache. Much better now.

Friday I had to run to the store and pick up a few things. This time I remembered to buy some Ibuprofen. After I got home I did dishes with Jarod's help and baked some brownies, with Chord's help, for me to bring over to a friends who I was hosting at her house a Discovery Toy's party for her. I left just after seven p.m. and didn't get home till after eleven p.m. It was a fun night but I was tired but still didn't get to bed till almost one a.m.

Saturday was grocery day so I got up drank some coffee and ate some breakfast and was off. Got everything we needed and came back home around eleven a.m. Then I had to leave again to meet some of the MOMS Club mom's to talk about a parenting book my one friend has called Love and Logic. I am learning that even before even hearing some of this book I have been parenting the boy's just like that. Maybe a little modified though. It's nice getting together with other mom's and discussing parenting. Learn something new and I am learning hubby and I aren't doing too badly. Then again I think most parents do the best they can and that's all we are doing.

Today was of course Church day. It was a good sermon as always and Chord really enjoyed the worship today. I loved watching him today just dance for the Lord. He was jumping around really getting into the music. He really loves worshiping the Lord. I think I could learn a lot from him. Instead of just standing there quietly worshiping I need to really enjoy being with the Lord and be so happy to have him in my presence and show Him my love for Him.

After church we came home and had lunch and I got the dishes done because I had let them go for a couple of day's from being so busy. So glad I got them done. I don't like leaving it that way. Felt a sense of accomplishment after that and then we went to my mom's and her fiances ' house. Hubby had changed the strings on my mom's fiances' guitar last week and so we returned it this week. It was a nice and relaxing time. I enjoy being around family. So what has everyone else been up to?

You sound like you were out straight! As you saw from my blog, we spent the day with family after church. Tomorrow I have an appointment with the doctor, Tuesday out to lunch with my husband's grandfather, Wednesday evening I have a visiting teaching appointment, and Thursday my visiting teachers are coming over. Sigh....
Amongst all of this there is my schoolwork and our son's.
As I said before, Sigh...
Take care! Keep your Ibuprofen close. Headaches are the pits!

Glad your headache is better!! Those are so not fun!

I've never heard of that parenting book. Do you know who the author is? I like James Dobson's "Dare to Discipline"... I do my best to parent like him...
