I'm glad we did our running around yesterday.
This morning, I woke up aching from head to foot and feeling completely drained.  Now I know why my arm had been more sensitive the last couple of days.  Sucks that I had to cancel my physio appointmet, though.  I ended up sleeping, instead.  The receptionist asked if I came down with the flu bug that's been going around - she'd been fielding cancellations all morning.
With me sluggishly making my way through the morning, then finally going for a nap in the afternoon, that left the girls responsible for taking care of things.  Eldest made lunch for us, which we ate while watching a library movie.  Womb Animals.  Not exactly lunchtime fare. *L*  It's a good thing stomache upset wasn't a problem for me. ;-)  Then, when it came time to make supper, I found I still wasn't up to standing around long enough to tend the stove, so Eldest took over again and finished for me.
Life is so much easier with older kids.  I love that I can have a day like this and trust completely that they can take care of things and don't need to be watched over, like when they were little.

Hope you are feeling better!
This is exactly what I can't wait for. Being a SAHM of toddlers, busy with my university studies as well, I feel so overwhelmed sometimes with them relying on me for everything all the time. I can't wait for the day I won't be forced to cook etc even when I'm totally out with the flu.Hope you're enjoying the new home.
