One of those weeks..

  It has been one of those weeks. One of those weeks where I find myself taking a few extra breaths, adjusting my outlook on life, and pulling up the big girl panties so to speak.
  It's just been one of those weeks where Steve has felt awful. His dental work is still giving him issues and he's on syringe number two for dry sockets. Add into that that the cold stiffens him up and he's felt more tired and forgetful this week. It comes and goes from time to time and is one of the lovely things with MS. We've found that he just writes down important messages or relays them immediately to me at work so I know what is going on. Thankfully it's just a sometimes thing and usually only with phone calls.
  Work wise I'm flat into a 7 day stretch. I try to keep seeing the light at the end of the tunnel...vacation!! :)...but 7 days stink lol Kaya HATES them with a passion. By Saturday she's thinking I need to take Sunday off. I remind her I only do them once a month. Work has went smoother since the weather has calmed and holidays are done. Even delivery guys are happier lol so that's a plus.
  So I've found myself mentally listing that I am a pretty lucky woman. Really who else in the world has the curly headed miracle I have snuggled up on my lap? Yes, every mother has their own miracle and every single one is special...but your own child is indeed the one miracle no one else has! So I have a beautiful little girl that is full of spunk, good health, giggles and a bit of sass. Even on her trying days..and there has been some in the last few weeks...her strong headness reminds me of how lucky I am to have a child that will hopefully never be pushed around. Who else has the husband I have? Yes all us married gals have a great husband in some form...but mine is mine lol Even on our hardest days we still make each other smile over something even if it's some silly thing like our tortoise kicking it's back leg like a dog when we pet it LOL Who else has the life I have? Yep every single one of us have our own personal lives, our own system, our own awesome way of living...but no one has MY life.
  Maybe sometimes we should all look at it that way. No one in the world is lucky enough to have exactly what each of us has. We all have different styles, different meals, different home lives, different work and the list goes on...but we each have our own special life.
   So tonight while I'm feeling tired and a bit on the stress side ;) I'm thankful to have what I have.
