I survived my first full day without Chris. It started off with me getting to sleep in. Not sure what was up with Madison, but she slept till 8:30!! She spends more time awake during the day, so it all evens out. But that was a nice treat to start off the day.
I spent most of the day in the same t-shirt I slept in (and shorts) doing laundry. I probaby would have stayed that way all day, but my parents came over, so I had to get dressed in decent clothes. ;) They brought over one of those outdoor playhouses for the kids. The boys call is their clubhouse.
I can't believe the house in still in good shape. The kids are doing really good at keeping their stuff picked up! It's a miracle!! lol
The kids have been picking on each other more, but I think we are getting that under control.
Got to talk to Chris tonight. He'll be at his final destination tomorrow, so not sure when I'll hear from him again. I tried to keep the conversation happy and light. I don't want him to think I'm too stressed with all the kids. Because, honestly, I'm not. But give me a few days, and I may be singing a different tune. ;)
I'm also tackling a home improvement project. I'm redoing some of the grout in my shower. It needed to be replaced, and I figured I could do it. So far so good. We'll see how it looks when it dries. Bad news - I have to shower in the kids' bathroom. It's not the end of the world, I just have to gather up all my stuff and move it. You know how girls tend to have lots of bathroom stuff. :) But I'm just thankful we have 2 bathrooms! I remember all too well the days of one - no fun!!!
I think that about sums up my first day.
((((HUGS))))
