Long Time.

I'm so sorry that I haven't posted in forever.. It's been nearly two months and I still feel like I have nothing to talk about. So much has happened, and yet so little has happened.

The day to day has sped up around here lately.. I've been coming and going and helping and babysitting and moving and shaking and dancing.. well, not so much dancing. But I've been busy helping Mom and Mimi and keeping them on track.. they keep me on track too! and I think it takes all of us to keep all of us sane and healthy :)

I told Tommy today that I feel like we're passing like ships in the ocean lately, I'm leaving and he's coming and going and joked that our only alone time is in the car on our way to the next destination.

Honestly, I love it.

This is exactly what I wanted to do when I signed up for the domestic engineering position of our household. Taking care of my family is exactly what I was born to do and exactly what I plan on doing for the rest of my days and I have never been so fulfilled :)


On another note, We've been back and forth to the hospital several times in the last 4 days, as CE was admitted on Thursday after a routine stress test was cancelled because of a quick and irregular heart beat when they hooked him up to the monitors.. and we spent the last 4 days traveling back and forth from Baptist East caring for him and making sure he had good food and a fresh newspaper :) The hospital had several ESPN channels so he was just fine the whole time. After some new medications they sent him home today and we hope to stay away from that place for quite a while!

In fact, I told the family today that if something happens to them, they will just have to die right there at home because I can't handle any more hospital for a while ;)

Tonight, after a small nervous breakdown, I think I realized that I was having a let down from my chaotic week. Everyday this week has been something and the unexpected hospital stay for CE was the icing on my cake of nerves! When the time came, I stepped up to the plate and handled myself pretty well, but after a full week of go go go, my body said no no no after all that anxiety that was being pushed back... truthfully, I just didn't have time to be nervous this week! I had too many responsibilities and too many folks to worry about and take care of!

I'm much calmer now though, and after a hot bath, some warm jammes and a full night of restful sleep, I'm sure I emerge a much stronger woman and family caretaker...

Sorry I haven't updated sooner, blogging sure makes me feel better, and I know I need to do it more often, so I will, I'll stay up on it, I promise :)

Night Night,

Kara
