We have all been there, I blame it on the unusually nice days we have been having, yes its cold at night but pretty dang close to perfect during the sunny part of the day. It makes mw want to go shoot guns, or fish, or fly a kite, or take the dogs to the lake, or anything besides the usual. I love to cook and be the "susieQ homemaker" but I love and cant wait till I can take this lil girl out of the house and show her this wonderful place we call Earth and all of the outdoor wonders I know she will love. I mean I have tons of things I could be doing: Painting (canvas and rooms), scrapbooking, writing, playing with lil girl (however she insisted on a nap lol), getting stuff ready to make meatloaf (tonights supper choice), baking, cleaning out my truck (tempted, this is prolly going to be the winner), laundry, et al...
I might go visiting when lil girl wakes up, however during RSV season and flu, and strep throat its way scary to get her around a lot of people.
We went to the city Thursday for her ROP exam (went great! She no longer has ROP and doesnt have to go back until July to have her eyes checked again!!!) and we went to pets mart, she loved the fish, and went and ate and had a wonderful time just getting out of the house and Elk even. Dont get me wrong I love this town its just nice to see something besides the walls of my house lol.
I want to get a pottery wheel one of these days so I can throw on days like today. I think thats what I miss most about Weatherford (might be the only thing lol) I had the pottery studio all to myself most of the time and could just turn on music and throw and shape and form whatever I felt like...bowls, vases, plates, trivets, boxes, and sometimes just lil animals lol. Yes if I could be doing anything right now it would be showing Mikayla how to throw clay and get really messy and laugh and laugh with her. It wont be too long, and I will. I cant wait until she is crawling and walking and developing into the lil person she has faught so hard to be. I cant wait for drawing on the sidewalk and washing cars, and all of the wonderful things that will make us so many memories. But anyways Im getting off the subject..
..back to Cabin Fever...
Does anyone else get like this? I mean I know Im prolly whining, my good friend Sunny is stuck in a hospital Im just stuck deciding if I want to take the baby monitor outside and clean out my truck or go visiting. But in the same I am in a sense stuck here protecting my most precious gift I have ever been given from nasty germs, I could take her out and do all of the things I have listed above, however I could never forgive myself if I was the reason she didnt feel good. So until the germy seasons over and we have the all clear from her doc and specialists I am willing to have a lil cabin fever for her lol. (huge sarcasm)
But anyone have any ideas or tips on how to cure this wretched thing that makes you feel like you are ready to jump out of your skin if you dont see something new or fresh? Im open for ideas. However remember me and lil girl are a package so it has to include her lol. She is my lil pea and Im the pod.
Well, Im going to get off of here and maybe go organize my shoes or something...
anxiosuly waiting your ideas...
Stephanie Dawn and Mikayla too
