Good Days and Bad Days

Sometimes I have really awesome days! I get a lot done, I have tons of energy, and I feel ahead of the game.

Today was not one of those days.

I did get plenty of sleep and good rest last night, as the last couple nights were really difficult. But today, I had a really hard time getting ready this morning. It was like every muscle in my body hurt, and every little thing I did to get ready for my day was painstaking! I don't have these days often, but this morning was just terrible.

Robert called into work to see if he was getting called in at 9, and he ended up having the day off. I asked him to take me to work, mostly because I didn't want to walk 1/4 to 1/2 mile to and from my car at work. He even got up and made me lunch. :)

Well, I was sick all day once I got to the office. Everything I ate came back up. (Sorry if that's too graphic). I won't go so far as to say it was miserable, but it certainly wasn't fun. Especially since I did a lot of document comparisons today.

Robert came to pick me up, and on my way out, I chatted with a couple co-workers who were giving me super helpful tips on shopping for Elizabeth, so that made me feel a little better.

We got home, and noticed that the furnace wasn't working (after I got sick again, of course, lol). So I called my mom, and we were able to have my stepdad come over and take a look and things. Before he got here, I checked to make sure the fireplace and oven were still working. I even got online to make sure the gas bill was paid and current! Everything was fine.

As I went out to the garage to check out the situation with Robert, he said, "Watch. I'll turn this all off and try to figure it out, and your stepdad will get here, and he'll turn it on, and it'll work fine."

Sure enough, that's pretty much exactly what happened! We were grateful there wasn't really a problem, but it was still a little freaky.

I made my famous apple crisp for the kiddos at Awana tonight. Robert had already peeled and cored the apples for me, so I just had to cut them up, which cut down on the time it took to prepare it. :) And the kiddos loved it, as usual. Two of the boys even said, "Thank you for making your apple crisp, Miss Kimi!" One of those boys told me he waits all year for our Christmas party so he can have some!

Anyway, I'm wrapping up the night by watching some TV with my husband, and I'm going to bed. Here's to hoping tomorrow's a good day. :)
