My mom invited me over for lunch today. I’ve been wallowing in a bit of self pity, feeling cabin feverish, yet being annoying unable to do just about anything. I’m having a very hard time deciphering what is affecting what, pain wise, and as far as I can tell, upping my movement in any way causes more pain. So as I sulked upstairs in my bed, watching my one millionth YouTube video, my mom texted and asked if she could pick me up for lunch. YES!
It was so nice ❤️ She warmed up some yummy soup noodles (my favorite) with some shredded chicken Alfredo sauce, and we had raspberries on the side. It was SO delicious, and so warm and cozy. We ended up spending a couple more hours together, just the two of us. It was a really nice time. My mom has been helping me a lot in the recent weeks, but rarely has it been just me and her. This was a treat.
Meanwhile, the big kids were at school, the little kids napped, and Brady did some little jobs and then he himself let down and relaxed a little bit. He’s definitely earned rest!
I’m home again, and while the same discouragement are still here, I feel somewhat renewed. A change of scenery works wonders, and I’m so grateful to have gotten out of my house for a couple of hours. Thank you for inviting me, mom!
I’ll get another change of scenery in a couple of days 🙂 I’ll tell you all about it later.
