A good day

I am in pain as I type this but all pain aside, the day was fine. I am trying to decide what my future holds. Do I try to do the office job or do I go back to home childcare? Today I watched five little ones while their sitter took the day off. The day went well and it felt like I had never given it up for a living even though it's been over a year since I closed up my daycare. My back pain has been bad lately. My neck is tense and stiff. I am going for a massage tomorrow, lets hope this helps. Sitting is just not good for me. I sat down at the table to do a puzzle with the kids today and had to keep getting up to do other things and try to get the back feeling better. I just don't know if I can do either job with this much pain day in and day out! It will be early to bed for me tonight. I hurt a lot :(

Mother's Day

Another painful day today. I think I overdid it yesterday. It was so beautiful outside, I wanted to work in the flower beds. There seems to be a lot of grass taking over this year but the tulips thankfully came back after last weekend's blizzard. Last weekend was nice. The laptop had some virus so I was unable to go online all weekend :) I am constantly amazed at how little time I am spending on the computer these days. I used to spend at least ten hours a day on a computer, what with working 7 and a half hours a day and then there was time in the morning before work, time at lunch and time after work. Now it doesn't even bother me, I seem to be getting more things done around the house rather than wasting my time online. My wrists are starting to burn now so this will have to be a short post today but even with the pain I was feeling today, we all managed to make it to church, do a bit of shopping afterwards and Brett popped up the camper today and I managed to clean a bit inside and restock for our first trip of the season, whenever that will be. I'm not in the mood to camp, normally I'm itching to get out there and get camping but this year I am thinking we won't be doing a lot of it. Brett has used up a lot of his holiday time taking me to doctors appointments out of town and with me not working, we need the money so taking holidays may not really be an option. Camping in pain does not sound like fun.

All in all though, I managed to stay positive today and am thankful for my two boys who made this a happy Mother's day. Here's hoping next year's Mother's Day is a little less painful than this one. Time for bed!
