titleless

There is no certain topic for my post.
Life in our household seems to be returning to ..(dare I say)...normal. My m-in-law is sick again, but she went to the doctor right away and with rest and prayer, she is recouping well. I am feeling SOOOO much better. I had no idea how horrible pneumonia is. But like I said, I am feeling better and that is what counts.
Paul's cousin is redoing our bathroom, nothing huge but there was a little bit of mold behind some of the drywall so he removed that and replaced it. Hopefully, if that was causing us ill, it will be better now. Now I have to find a shower curtain I like so I can pick out paint. We might get him to put in a real tile floor too. I would love that! We will see. I did find a shower curtain I liked but it was $60. I cannot justify a $60 shower curtain. We are going to the Depot today to get new sink fixtures etc....
Miss M is feeling better. She had a runny nose and cough for over a week but is back to her normal, happy self. She is the best baby, but that is a whole 'nother post.
J is doing well is school. He is reading about 45 sight words and loves to write. He is always making books and writing about pictures. IT is exciting to me! He finished up basketball this week. Next is tee-ball.
I am still having trouble keeping up with the housework. As we speak, I am staring at a mountain of laundry that needs to get folded. I was hoping that the laundry fairy would come by while I slept, but that didn't happen!;)
Anyhoo, I am off to Kohl's to shop for a curtain!

Sick

Last Tuesday morning I was diagnosed with pneumonia. It was a long night in the emergency Room and a rough couple of days but I am feeling about 85%. It is hard to do all the "resting" stuff they tell you to do when you are a mom. Just trying to lay low and only do the necessary house stuff. Today's agenda? Airing out the house and washing all of the bed sheets.
Sure wish for normalcy but glad to be feeling better.

Oh no...

We're getting more snow!~ I cannot believe it! I think it will take until June for all of this stuff to go away!

We need some prayers please. My mom has had bronchitis for about two weeks and cannot seem to get well. She is on her 3rd antibiotic. If you would, send up a prayer for her healing. She hasn't worked in two weeks and that isn't good for her either. She is also a bit stir crazy and with the snow, she really cannot go anywhere, even if she was feeling well. God bless her neighbors who have shoveled her out without being asked, and my hubby who delivered her some groceries yesterday and will pick up her meds today.

Pray for the safety of all of us here in this area who are about to get more snow.

Blizzard

The Blizzard came to town today. We measures about 25.5 inches in our yard. We have shoveled about 1/2 out so far, one car, most of the sidewalk. It was super heavy snow so we had to take it easy with the shoveling. Here are some pictures from our "Snowpocalypse".

J being crazy while M screams.
THe happy shovelers....
