walking

I am excited for tonight, I guess there is this group of ladies that take a 5km walk every monday and wednesday nights here in town, so tonight I am going to go and it will be so nice to get out and talk to some adults. I'm on a roll lol, mon, wed and thurs I have me time!! WOOHOO!! This way I am guaranteeing a 3 days a week work out. Plus I have been thinking about going on the bike 10 minutes every hour during the day, Derek brought his mom's bike here, so it would be a good idea so I get off my butt more! It can't hurt thats for sure, well maybe my butt, but that it something I will just deal with.

Kai had preschool today, he woke up hyper lol, and I was glad to get him to school, or else it was going to be a long morning, well when we got to the school he was clinging to my butt and almost pulled my pants down in front of his whole class, he did not want me to leave today, but the teacher distracted him with the water table, so I left the room, but I saw they have their own little books so I was taking a look at his, when he saw me about to leave and flipped out and cried, I felt so bad. But I am sure he is still having a good morning, he usually does. He is only is school til 2, so its perfect for some quiet time for us, and gets him out of the house and kept busy. Reiko is doing good today so far, I had to take off his femur splint because there was pee on it, it leaked all over it, but he seems comfortable without the splint, so hopefully he can do without it. He is just laying on the floor right now watching Rachel Ray, and playing with some toys, he is quite talkative today and full of energy, so I cannot wait for his chair to get here this week!

Derek still has the flu, so he is in bed again, I went to bed last night at 8 and still did not sleep well at all, thankfully Respite care is here tonight. I need my side of the bed, but when Derek is home I give him my side of the bed since he finds the other side uncomfortable, hence, why I did not sleep last night! hmm, Rachel Ray is making me hungry and now I am trying to figure out what to make for supper today, there is left over shepards pie for lunch, maybe make some burgers tonight with salad, ill try to make something light at least.

Today is Rare Disease Day http://www.globalgenesproject.org/  , so wear your Jeans and blue's today, I am for Reiko. If you could wear it for Reiko that would make me super happy!

I have been doing my makeup everyday now for almost a week, it is making me feel better about myself. I have gotten so sick of just wearing my pjs and looking twice my age. I forget that even though I am a mom, I am still 24 and quite young, and should enjoy my youthful looks while I can. I already feel like I have aged 10 years this year alone though with everything we have gone through. But the nice thing is, looking at that picture I don't think I look to bad right now, my stomach has gotten smaller..or is that me just wishful thinking lol.

This week we have NOOOO appointments! YAY!!! I think this is the first time since his montreal visit, I love when we have no appts, especially with the gas prices being 1.21 litre right now, which is freaking insane! I really hope that the prices go down soon, I don't know how people can afford this right now. Luckily the Mocha Shriners reimburses us for our trips down to Reiko's appointments, the gas and parking, so that helps big time, especially since some weeks we can have 2 or 3, I always try to get them to happen on the same day, but of course everytime I have appts in a week, none of them work on the same days, soo annoying.

I am hoping that today I can take a nap at some point, I am freaking tired, but I will see how Derek feels better first. Have I mentioned men are babies when they are sick?? lol. Ok time to play with the baby and get on the bike. Take care everyone
