So after being up and down all night with a sick lil mister mister, I still made it a point to get up smile and face the day head on. I chose my word for the day in which I chose the word amazing
Little did I know that my word would mean a whole lot more by the end of the day. As my day progressed my lil mister was still not feeling good and with me being tiered due to being up with him off and on, I decided to take a nap with him. Now if you are a mom you know when you have hit your no sleep limit. At that point I knew I needed to sleep when he did. Two hours later I wake to a baby trying to catch my attention from the crib just a few feet from my bed. I go to get up, then it hits like a ton of bricks. Body aches, runny nose, chills, upset stomach, fever, yep I am sick.
I wanted so much to lay back down. As I forced my muscles to bring my self to a standing position and then push to go over and pick up my son to take him to where he plays, every bone and muscle in my body screamed. Then I realized and started to feel worse because now I am sick and my son is sick and we both are just doing what we can to be comfortable and get through this. On top of it I still had a Facebook to post too and a blog to write. Well my son looks at me and through his fever and I am sure aches like me, he smiles and I can not help but smile back. He is just too stinking cute. Right then and there I decided that we would cuddle and we would be attached at the hip. If this means I have to play catch up outside of taking care of us and getting better then so be it. I may not do everything I want to do but I will just have to accept that and know as well as remember there is always tomorrow.
There is a special thanks to my dad who stepped in and assisted with my son along with for me his starve a cold feed a fever remedy I am back to the normal me today. I may have only been able to post a few quotes to the Facebook, do my word of the day, I did manage to write my letter to myself
As promised from the blog the night before, a letter to the old me, the present me and the future me 30 days from now. The only thing I managed not to do was I never made it to actually blog. I wanted to feel disappointment and I wanted to beat myself up because I couldn't get done what I wanted. But I didn't. Instead I looked at my word from yesterday today and looked at just how rough and hard my day was and I amazed myself that I did and got done what I did. I still in my weakest moment got most of what I had intended to do. I was amazing in my weakest moment and rocked out sick mom.
Now if you are following and trying this with me, what was your word for day 5, and how did it feel writing a letter to you, sealing it and pinning it to your board to see how thing may change from now till then?
Week 1 - day 6
Now today I knew i needed to catch up on the everyday and monthly errand things that needed to get done but did not due to being sick. I also had Physical therapy for my back in which we are still in the process of finding out whats going on and why I am in the pain I am in. So with that, I woke to find me feeling almost back to me. I am not all there but so thankful that I am not the sick version from the day before. I looked at my board, I so love the self reflection that is appearing before me. I know these words are me, That with each day I look at the board I can feel one less negative thought and more of the positive light coming through. I think about the words I have listed and decided on the word Diamond. Tho I was not quit back to fully being me, feeling better, not in pain, I felt like a diamond being pulled from the dirt, That although I still needed some polishing I still manage to shine through the dirt cover.
I would like to say the smile I had posting this word, I so showed pearls. I insured as I went through my day I incorporated my words, I used them and I shared them. I made smiles today, Had a smile today and it just turned out to be a great day. Me and lil man shared tons of smiles ate well today finally, and took care of my dad who in the process of taking care of us got sick today. But now that this funk has ran its course I think it is safe to say tomorrow will be an even better day and I am so looking forward to it.
Now tomorrow, along with getting the things I need to make my christmas gifts, I will also be getting the stuff we will need for our next project. If you are following, trying and doing these with me. Also if you don't mind sharing, what was your word of the day or would be if you just started following. Tomorrows project we will need a jar with a lid, ribbon, paper and pen. Another thing is tomorrow you will not be writing a word for your board. instead tomorrow and every 7th day we will find a friend or family member and in one positive word describe us. You will write it down and pin it to your board, you are also more than welcome to have them write it and pin it.
We are going to live our words, use them and experience them with each passing day. That will never change. I am also giving myself a challenge tomorrow I am going to find something I have never done, read, watched, played, something I have thought about doing lately but just never pushed myself due to lack of esteem or just lack of confidence and see how it goes.
With that we come to the end of our days 5 & 6. I hope you continue to follow and enjoy. Feel free post if you have any questions, post your word or words of the week as well as any comments below. Till tomorrow, Remember no matter how bad yesterday, the day before or today was, tomorrow is a new day. It is up to you and from me to you to become the best you and find your CanKan attitude. Goodnight my friends
