It's not yet 6 am and I have finished my Bible time and pretty much finished reading the net.   For some reason my dh couldn't sleep this morning and got up about 4, Yawn!  I was sleeping just fine then, didn't know exactly when he got up.  I just woke up cold.   Covered up and snuggled down for more sleep.  Just about then I heard...??? rats??? in my closet?  A dog? A cat?  No it was Dh looking for something.  Again I snuggled down to TRY at this point to go back to sleep.  He left for work about 5, and I gave up and got up shortly after that. 

The good news about me being up at 5 is I must be feeling better!   I have really been struggling for almost 2 weeks with feeling yucky.  Yet, not really being able to put my finger on what was going on.  I finally decided I might be yeasty.  Night before last I started taking some homoeopathic stuff to kill yeast.   Yesterday I had a terrible headache all day, but felt better less sluggish.  Today I didn't drag me out of bed, but willingly got up.   I will continue to take this stuff for a couple of weeks and I hope get me back where I should be.  I will also avoid breads and sugars.  I really though I was doing that already.  I don't know what tipped the balance to overgrow.   Yeast is something I have struggled with all my adult life.   It has only been in the past 5-10 years I have learned how to control it.  So I was surprised at this attack.   Usually I struggle around Thanksgiving when I overindulge in sweets.  

Today we are off to town.  I have a Sams list and a everywhere else list.  If we get it all done before therapy time then we will do some park time.   I want to get a few things we figured out we need for the camper.  Stuff like a night light in the bath room. 

We have one more hoop to jump through on the homestudy.  We have to fully enclosed our pool.  It won't be that big a deal, just dodging pipes putting in T post.  That is this weekends plans.   Still waiting on the finger prints.  Please keep praying that they come in soon.  As soon as they are here we get to go meet J.   I am still getting to talk to her a couple of times a week.  She is getting excited about being adopted.  I am enjoying her excitement.  :)   I can't wait to share that we are the family.  Her case worker is excited for her.  She is still emailing me with how well we "fit".  This is from stuff J is telling her about our conversations.  I pray and do feel very good about it.  I am sure we will have our mommy daughter moments.  That is just part of being a family.  

MN got a taste of mommy/daughter moments last night.  She had avoided her chores.  If you were looking at her you would thing she was busy.  If you were looking at the things on her list you would know she was looking busy, accomplishing nothing.  So after supper and more piddling she was shocked to find she had extra chores an if she couldn't finish in a timely, or really speedy manor she would be up at 6 to finish them.  She couldn't and she missed getting up with her alarm, so I just got her up.   She wasn't a happy camper at getting dish duty after supper last night.  Dad came through and ask her why she was doing dishes.   She was honest and told him because she didn't do her chores correctly.   :)  That is an accomplishment!  Owning the choices she made.  

Our weekend plans are do the fence and just work around here.  We need to mow the weeds.  Er, grass according to dh.  Weeds really fit better!   Garden needs weeding.  Good thing there is I have a 11 yo that decided to pay me back for the toilet paper he used to wrap his head and who knows what else in "mummy" fashion by weeding the garden.  My DIL was really hoping he would choose the other option, me supplying his TP for the next month.  I have some wonderful Christian Book Dist. Catalogs that would fit the bill just as well as Sears use too. 

My 11 yo is struggling with being funny.  He isn't!   He thinks he is, and comes off looking stupid most of the time.  He isn't stupid either!  I have just about developed a zero tolerance for his "funniness".   I am like is anyone laughing?  He can be very smart and carry on a good conversation, but he "likes" to be funny.   I don't do class clown very well.   I want him to learn positive ways to express himself where he doesn't come out the blunt of the joke.  People aren't laughing WITH him, but AT him.  I am trying to get him to see that.   The mummy was one of his attempts at funny.  Girls didn't see the humor, told and mom sure didn't.

Daylight has came while I typed so I am off to go surprise the cows with an early milking instead of late.  Hope everyone has a very blessed day!
