Jan 27th...

Today was interesting to say the least. It was long...stressful...frustrating. Derrick called at 6:30 am to ask me why I didn't put the insurance cards in the car, that call woke up Cael who, on an early day, will sleep until 7:30. Averi stayed asleep thank goodness and after about 20 minutes of pretending I could sleep on the couch, I finally admitted defeat and put my glasses on. Do you ever have days where you actually get something accomplished before noon and you think to yourself; "Hey, maybe I COULD do this everyday..." Today was one of those. I had the dishes done before 10 am! It was a great feeling, my kitchen was clean and that gave me the motivation to get going on the rest of the house. The fact that I'm trying not to think about how we are going to pay for school, or about Derrick leaving, could have had something to do with my motivation...but we'll just say it was because I got the dishes done.
