This weekend was spent half at home and half on the road...Que in the "Willie Nelson-On the road again"...We all had a cold this weekend that wreaked its own version of havoc to say the least. I give props to all single mom's to multiples and or simply young kids because to tackle all of that and make yourself "available" for them while you feel as if on death's door as well is no small feat to put it mildly. Friday I took the day off as Violet was sick so we stayed home and attempted to get better but that was not in the cards. Today we all woke up feeling a tad better to we ventured out! My kids love getting in the car and listening to music and being on the go! We jammed to The Black Crowes, Frank Sinatra, Fleetwood Mac and finally a little Christmas music from a Charlie Brown Christmas. I know, quite the grouping of music but we love it all! We did a little shopping and a little eating, of course! I must say, doing this alone is tough but each time it gets a little easier. I bust out the triple stroller and load each Casebolt into it, and a good 20 minutes later we are set! Haha! I always forget something and always hit something or someone with this mammoth stroller that has its own zip code but I am still doing it! I always get looks of amazement, confusion, and general wonderment when I am out and about with these 3! Why is it so crazy that I have 3 so close in age? So amazing that God blessed me with this many wonderful kids, so close in age? I found the answer! For better patience, for more understanding, and did I mention PATIENCE? I believe with all that I am that these kids of mine are a gift and I learn something new everyday, what parent doesn't? At any rate as always I digress...
Another weekend down, a busy week ahead. I will be having surgery on December 12th and my amazing dad and sister are coming to watch the kids while I am in the hospital, and help me out. Bless them! I have a swanky and fancy Christmas party this weekend that is black tie and I am so excited about this!!! My date is a very good friend of mine, Paige and her amazing daughter is going to watch the trio, then dad and boo get here Sunday. I am having my thyroid out for those that may not know, I have been dealing with thyroid issues for the better part of 17 years I can guess and I am finally ready to move on and start anew. Without said thyroid! My body with time will normalize and I hope and pray I begin to feel myself again. With an overactive thyroid your metabolism is on steroids it would seem. I know it seems great for weight loss but I have lost enough weight and now bone loss, I am tired and done with it. So starting anew it is!!! Ready to heal and move on! Please be praying for my little family and myself as we deal with alot next week but thankfully we have pop's(dad) and auntie sydney(booy) here to help! I am so blessed to have such a loving family that change their lives and plans for me, for us. If anyone is reading this I hope everyone has a blessed night and week...
Much love
Sarah
