First of all, thanks to Esther for finishing the blog last night. I was so tired and literally was sitting in the chair next to her going to sleep. : ) It was the dang nausea medicine that did it to me, I'm not usually a zombie by 10:30 at night. I've felt better today than I did yesterday. I called the nurse this morning to tell her what happened yesterday. She told me that the younger you are, the more nausea receptors you have. So she called in a steroid that has made today bearable. I had some great helpers today, I am so grateful to everyone that is willing to come and spend some time with me and the kids! Marilee came and spent the morning here playing with the kids, chasing the baby and cleaning up the kitchen. You're awesome!! THANKS! Heather picked me up to take me to get a prescription that I had to take at 10:00 this morning. I can't drive this week, the nausea med's cause drowsiness and I don't dare get behind the wheel. After I took my pills, I laid down on the couch to watch the kids play and the next thing I know, I've gone to sleep. Marilee got a blanket to lay over the top of me and took the kids in their room to play with toys. I think I've got the greatest neighbors on the planet!
Diana came around lunchtime and spent the rest of the day with us. She's a dear friend that I've known forever. We just laugh and joke and have a great time! It is always fun to have her here. Diana, sorry Brooklyn pestered you so much today. Will you come back again sometime? : ) I laid down again just as she was leaving, with the same result as above.
The Laurels in our ward came to do a service project here tonight. They all came to tend, prepare dinner for the kids, play games, read books, etc. The idea was that we would go to the temple, but I thought it might be better for me if I'm off these med's that make me sleep before we attempt that. So, we went out to eat, did a little shopping and then went to the gym to work out. I don't know why I like to torture myself like that, but I do. I always feel better after I go, tonight was no exception!

So glad you had a better day! Can't believe you went to the gym but I totally understand about always feeling better after you do! You look great and I have to agree, you have the prettiest head I've ever seen! Spring is almost hear Kim and I know you will enjoy that! Such a reminder that though we have to weather through the winter at points in our lives, Spring is just just around the corner and eventually the roses will bloom again! Love ya! Jenny
