This Crazy Life

I had therapy today.  I actually feel like I’m in a decent place.  My daughter has been out of the hospital for almost 5 weeks.  We aren’t shopping for groceries daily.  We go once a week when we go to the doctor.  It’s still a long and stressful trip but it’s not every day.  She’s also not doing laundry every day.  She’s settled into a routine w/ the washer and dryer in her bedroom and is managing to just do laundry once a week.  It takes all day.  But then she is done.  She is far from thriving, but she is surviving.  We saw a different doctor this week as her doctor was out and she commented that she looked better since the last time she saw her, which was in the hospital.  So that was nice.  It’s hard to see any difference when you see her day in and day out.  But moving past her.  My other two kids are doing good.  And they are getting along.  And dare I say they are happy.  We still struggle with school some, but like one day a week, not every day.  One has a boyfriend that I like and approve of and he’s fitting in with the family.  We’ve played games together.  And had fun.  Something I don’t think we’ve done for years.  We did a nighttime easter egg hunt for easter and it was fun.  Everyone enjoyed it.  I’m so happy I’m getting to spend some more fun, quality times with my babies before they are all grown up.  I hate that it’s only with two of them, but honestly, at this point I will take one I can get and choose to see the positive in each day!
