So, I mentioned in my other blog that my hormones are attacking my hip again.  And then I slipped on some laundry Sunday and wrenched it some more.  And then...all the pep went right out of my step. 

I immediately planted my butt on the couch and slowed down.  Unfortunately, Monday night the weekly chaos started again, and I had to be Supermom again.  Really, I was mostly OK until Tuesday when I had to go to the store and then prepare for and then lead a GS meeting.  I don't feel as if I was doing THAT much walking, but my wrenched hip, and then my back and calf/leg from all my "compensating" screamed otherwise.  Then I swallowed my Can Do pride and asked my husband for some help with the Wednesday chaos.  He stepped up, and I stayed at home on my self-imposed bed rest alllll day and evening. 

And then I started coming down with a cold.

Ugh.

Today my walking is not quite so hitchy, but I'm still not moving so great.  And the cold on top of all that is leaving me just a whining, hormonal bag of snot.  I WANT MY NYQUIL, DAMMIT!

There is still a lot on the agenda for the next few days/evenings, and I'm wondering if I'm up to it.  But I am a firm believer that this too shall all pass, and I'll be back to my bubbly self in a few days.  Until then, I shall embrace my self-imposed bed rest and hope that this cold is a SHORT one.

Reading this is a surefire way to stop me from ever getting pregnant again...and to get me off of the natural family planning band wagon.

I remember those days all too well.

Soon though, it will be over and you'll have another baby girl!!
