I wish we had lots of fun exciting news, but we don't. Oh wait, I did paint the kids bedrooms that I promised I would do months ago,.....before I got sick. The rooms look great, but maybe I wasn't quite ready for a project of that magnitude. My thinking, " just paint all 11 doors and the trim since you have everything out, it won't take long". In reality, it took three days, one of which I stayed up until 4am. Brilliant, one coat of primer and 2 coats of paint later we no longer have ugly dark brown stain on the main floor of the house! It took me 2 days to recover.
We are pretty much back into a routine, it is nice. The three big kids are back in swimming lessons and loving it. Reid and Lexi are doing great in the piano lessons and school. Kurt is excited to start preschool next year, we'll see what he thinks once he actually goes. I think he finds all his one-on-one with Mommy not as cool as he once did.
It is February and I really am looking forward to some warmer weather. I have never been so cold in my life. Apparently it isn't uncommon to have trouble regulating body temperature while trying to regulate Synthroid dosing. Since they will only up my dose every 30 days, I think this will take a while. I just never thought I would see the day when I would be wearing socks to bed with 4 or 5 blankets piled on top of me.
I did have a CT scan a few weeks ago and was told I am in the "all clear" until November. That is great news and we are looking forward to fewer doctor appointments. Now I only have to go in every month. Yeah!!
The kids in their Christmas jammies, I just love their "deer in the headlights" expressions, don't you?
