“Quicksand.” I feel like that’s the best way to describe the way my days have been feeling lately? Like I’m making progress, but I’m not? It’s so strange. I feel like I’m running in place and going nowhere. But I suppose that’s just how things feel sometimes. We’re all just taking one step at a time, but sometimes the steps feel longer and harder than others.
My mom and sister came over to visit us today. I think there were a lot of things I wanted to do while they were here, but I just couldn’t bring myself to do anything. I just relaxed and cooked some zucchini bolognese sauce. But then again, maybe that’s actually just what I needed today? Everyone is always so busy in our world nowadays, that I feel guilty when I just need to sit for a while?
Someone was a bit grouchy this afternoon after her nap. The past few days, we’ve been napping for over 2 hours together, which was nice for me, but then difficult at bedtime. So today, I made sure to wake Ellie up at the 2 hour mark in hopes that she’d have an easier time sleeping tonight. And it worked! She was grumpy after her nap and didn’t want to get dressed to play outside, but after we went for a walk and played with the sheep, she was happy again.
We’re almost reaching 31 days of no dirty dishes in the sink and it feels awesome. I’m tired and want to go to bed, but I’m still happy that I won’t need to do the dishes tomorrow morning. I have a contacts appointment tomorrow morning very early, so I need to finish this post as soon as possible.
I’ve had this color since college I think, still very fun!
February 11, 2021 – Today I’m thankful for my low GD numbers today. I ate an extra snack this evening because I was still hungry after my first after dinner snack, so I hope that doesn’t affect my glucose levels too terribly tomorrow morning.
