Life has been a roller coaster these past few weeks. I’ve tried really hard to see the joy and blessings in all of it. Trying to keep all of it on track has been like baby steps. Not letting anything fall through the cracks has been hard but I’ve managed the best I could. Not keeping my promise or not getting my stuff done doesn’t set well with me at all. I’m a worker, a busy bee with a drive that pushes me everyday. I am a bit behind on a few things but my list are made and it will all get done.
Greg is healing nicely, but not quiet there yet. We see the Doctor on Thursday. He isn’t the best at minding me or doing what he is told by the Doctor. I’ve had to be a bit bossy and let him know I’m the boss at the moment. I’ve been finding little projects to do while I sit with Greg. Again sitting steal not one of my best qualities. I set up a place in the kitchen near him so I can hear him if he needs me. I didn’t realize just how many small things I had in storage. These are quick little projects that I can do in a short time frame. That is what has been going on in my kitchen.
A few weeks back I showed you a small table. I was going to show you how many ways you could use it. Well that blog went out the window when Greg got sick the first time. Life can turn on a dime without any notice what so ever. You have to learn to flip with it and roll. After I picked myself up off the ground and dried my tears I rolled with it. I did finish the table but again, change of plans. My sister-in-law was in town and she admired it. We had talked about how she needed something for her bathroom. A small table to put guest supplies, towels and toiletries on. It also happened to be her birthday so I finished it up in one night and it is now on its way to Arkansas. It turned out so cute. I can’t say it enough that small changes to your home with paint and decor makes a huge difference. These little table can be used on the counter top and on the floor. You can add them to the tope of another piece of furniture. Going up the wall is reclaiming real estate we all have and don’t use most of the time.
Sometimes life is small baby steps and sometimes you are running your butt off. Most of the time I’m running so slowing down is painful. I don’t want to miss out on life, I want to make sure that I live life to its fullest. Soon Greg will be back up and asking okay kiddo what are we doing this weekend. Until then baby steps, small projects and plans being made.
