So strange how life just keeps on moving, seemingly unaware of what I feel prepared for, and what I don’t. But thats good. Life has to keep going. It keeps my mind busy and moving and doesn’t let me live in a mope, even though that sometimes feels easier. It never actually helps.
This coming week is full, and busy. We have a couple of band practices because (drumroll) we have a gig on Thursday! I have not done my due diligence promoting it this time around, but we’d sure love to see some of our friends there. Another night at Clearcut in Martensville, starting at 6:00. That being said, I’m in the market for a babysitting that night as well, if anyone knows anyone. Please, friends, come join us for another fun evening of singing and visiting and sipping and tasting. Have you guys seen all the delicious things Clearcut serves?? They’ve really upped their baking game.
Besides that obviously large event, this week holds a lot. I have an ultrasound on Monday, but we’ll talk more about that in a future post this week. Parent teacher interviews are this week. Brady works all week, and I’m seeing some friends here and there. With that, we have all of our usual stuff that needs doing. The laundry is currently going, and all the kids have been bathed. I could use some hygiene as well, but who knows if we’ll get there or not today. My poor teeth. My poor face. My poor hair. I’ll get there eventually. Brady is going to duck outside during nap time and do some chores, and I think he’ll bring the big kids with him.
We have been very fortunate that our church has surrounded us this week with love and a TON of food! Goodness. We won’t have to cook for like at least another full week. Tonight, instead of someone dropping food in our entrance, a family we love is coming over, cooking supper in our house, and eating with us. I love that, and I’m really looking forward to it.
It should be a good day, and a good next week. Very normal. Despite the fact that nothing is actually normal. That my body is going bananas. That we’re in survival mode, with everything under control, but bubbling pretty close to the surface. We’re being brave. Its hard.
