Ppbbbbtttt

Today was not a good day for Lent resolutions :) I woke up around 6:15 with Sarah to several inches of snow outside and it was still coming down. I knew we would not be driving to Fort Morgan to do our grocery shopping! I stayed in my pajamas til around 1 pm, didn't do my dishes or make my bed. I guess it wasn't a total loss. I DID put away the dishes I did last night, swept the snow off the front porch, got dressed to my shoes (even if it was a liiiiitle late), and washed some of Sarah's stuffed animals I was afraid of catching the plague from. Some of my habits were not broken. I think I need to give myself a little leeway on some things. Being pregnant means that no matter how well I treat my body, there will be days when I am sick or exhausted and pushing myself to do everything I planned will only make it worse. I'm beginning to realize this a little late in the pregnancy. "But, Sybil," you might ask, "weren't you pregnant once already? Didn't you know this?" Answer: No. With Sarah I was able to lay around all day without worrying about a two year old destroying the house. I could nap all day if I wanted. It's quite different this time around. I am glad for the challenge, though, because I'm also learning that I can always do SOME things, even if it's only 5 minutes at a time.
