Everyday begins...

with the same goal. I am going to make it through the day and enjoy all of the stress and the joys of being a wife, a mother, and a caregiver. I don't always succeed.
Yesterday the kids played well together. The first day of summer vacation and they can still tolerate each other, which is a good thing. :-D We had a wonderful family dinner and movie night with Netflix. These are things that I am grateful for.
One of my difficulties is procrastination. I am horrible. I feel like a 10 year old - as soon as someone says I have to do something, I will avoid it at all costs. For example, we have been talking about moving our bedroom downstairs for awhile. Yesterday, hubby says it's time - it has to be done now. All I want to do is scream - I DON'T WANT TO!:evil:
I hate what it means. It means that in the 4 short months since diagnosis, he can no longer manage the stairs. It means that our time seems to be slipping away faster than I had ever imagined.
But, I will get it done. I will make sure we are happy and comfortable. I will make the downstairs bathroom into his bathroom so he can be safe. I will do these things because I love him. That love is so deep and pure and strong, I know we can get through this.
I realize this is a bit of a ramble. But that's what I love about blogs. My thoughts, how the happen.
Now to transform the office into a bedroom......right after I do the yardwork.:mrgreen:
p.s. Yardwork is done and I have taken a truckload of stuff to the dump. So even as I procrastinate, I got stuff done. :lol:
