fatigue

I have been sick with a stomach virus for two days . . . I won’t go any further than that because you will upchuck in your mouth a little at the description and I just don’t want to cause any horribly bad breath out there.

But I do have to say that it has made me so sleepy . . . I believe the title of this very post describes how I feel from the time I rise in the morning, until my head hits the pillow at night.

I don’t have a fever, I don’t have a headache, I don’t have any sinus thingy going on . . . no, there is no other sign that I am a sicky, except the constant churning of my lower intestines . . . I’m sorry if that was too much . . . I will pause so you can go brush your teeth. . . . the other sign being that I just want to sleeeeeep!

I behaved badly today and decided to sit upon my couch (throne) and, for the most part, allowed Justin to take over my daily duties. Thats not to say that I didn’t change a load or two of wash or do a load or two of dishes . . . but he did chase the kiddos around a bit more than me and deep cleaned the old kitchen . . . which needed it severely. So, to my fantastic hubby . . . Thank You!!

Ok, that is really all thats new in the land of Tuckerville. Not a whole lot happening.

Oooh, I do have to say that God has truly provided for us to continue here in Salem . . . finances got super sticky there for a bit but I see a teeny tiny light at the end of the tunnel . . . so we will make it! Thank you, Jesus!

My sister also sent me newborn pics of Samuel . . . yes, a bit overdue but I was one overwhelmed Momma there for the first year of Sam’s little life . . . Tobias was only 17 months when Samuel was born . . . so I had my hands full. So I’ve just now managed to extract photos from my sisters regarding their time spent in the delivery room on September 12, 2006. I included a few of them below. I cried when I was looking through them . . . but, if you know me, that really doesn’t take much.

Pictures are powerful things . . . such emotions come flooding back with even the sight of these! Such a healthy and happy baby . . . so quiet. If you knew Tobias when he was a baby . . . he was a bit colicky the first 3 months and has been my loud and passionette one since. Samuel, he’s mellow yellow . . . my contemplative one . . . and such a cuddle bug. They are so different but yet I love them equally . . . to the top of my very love-meter.

God Bless!
