I'm so happy...I know, I've said it before, but really, I'm so very happy at how well I'm doing. I was up again this morning and able to direct and help the kids with chores and such. Then I laid down for the rest of the afternoon and most of the evening and got back up to help with Family Home Evening and then get the younger two kids in bed.
For FHE we talked to the kids about fire safety and what they should do and where they should go. We also found out that none of the three alarms in the house worked. Two had no batteries and one is malfunctioning. Probably a good thing we checked them, huh..... I have been having panic attacks at night about the kids knowing what to do if there is a fire at night, so I'm pleased to have done this much and we'll continue by doing fire drills randomly and to get new and more alarms in the house. We're also planning on getting some carbon monoxide monitors and fire ladders for the kids rooms.
I felt like I could have gotten up this afternoon, but I'm wary of overdoing it and having a relapse. I really don't won't to go back to where I was, thank you.
I found a cool site today. I've been hearing about digital scrap booking here and there and I've started looking into. I've been mostly looking at photo sites, like Kodak gallery, shutter fly, etc... I like what I see and I may still use them, but today I found a site that is specifically designed to print books and they have free software that "sucks" your blog up and spits it back out in book form!! How cool is that!
I wanted to do some memory books for the various kids/seasons and such, but I also wanted to do a book of my blog and I think this site is perfect for that. I had heard that there was a site/place that did it, but I don't know if this is that one, but I'm so excited about it. I've sucked my 10 in the Cabin blog up and have spent the last several hours editing it!! So much fun and I'm so excited about it, in case I didn't mention that.
So here's the site: http://www.blurb.com
