It was bound to catch up to us. Hard and full work weeks sandwiched between busy, fast, and sleepless weekends finally got us. This past weekend Town Hall was down for the count with cold symptoms. Boo. Friday was restful as we stuck to our evening routine. On Saturday Charles and Pastor Fred headed to Covington for an outreach seminar. I had originally planned on going as well - we even had a sitter in place (Pastor's girls were going to watch Bella), but I was on call, so I had to cancel. However, I did take the girls up on the babysitting for some much needed "momma" time.
I felt a little guilty, but I convinced myself that errands and shopping would be more efficient if I went alone. Plus, Bella loves playing with Kendra & Claire. Getting her in and out of the car and in and out of carts - the thought overwhelmed me. (See? I'm still trying to convince myself that it was ok for me to take some time to myself...) I ran about town adding to my maternity wardrobe - quite successfully, I might add.
I picked Bella up after about 4 hours and we went home, snuggled, and fell fast asleep. Charles came home shortly after and we simply hunkered down as we all were starting to feel sick. Same can be said for Sunday after church.
And, now we're back to the grind just two days into our work week... hopefully we'll be able to enjoy this coming weekend!
