Slept another full night last night after getting the kids in bed. I washed the baby bottles and wiped up the kitchen countertops. It may seem like nothing, but after 7 weeks, I take pride in the simplest accomplishments. I even did a load of laundry of kids clothes; things are piling up at home with 4 people.
I helped get the kids ready in the morning and Adam drove us over to my parents. I was just exhausted all day, either from the coreg med stopped or the drop to 30mg of prednisone. Their cleaning lady was here so I just took Lucy in the back porch and let her fall asleep on me. I didn't sleep well but it was something. I helped with the kids some today and kept up with the juice boxes. Just two more to go. Dr Gonsalves office called to keep me at 30mg if prednisone for 1 more week; so I'll probably change that next Thursday at Northwestern. Mom is going to take me to see Dr. Gonsalves, Dr. Taft, and Beth. That'll be a long day! Pay Jarot will be helping my dad with the kids again until Adam gets home from work. I'm looking forward to getting more energy and driving again. I hate being reliant on everyone, but I know it's best for now and I'm getting stronger every day.
Drew and my mom are napping on the bed while Lucy is upstairs. I'm just typing, waiting for the phone call (just came), the doorbell for my mom's pills, or for Lucy. Everyone has had a cold so I'm grateful they are sleeping. David is coming in for the weekend tonight so we should have am update on him soon. That said, just heard Lucy. I'll go get her so mom and drew can rest. I like to save my afternoon naps so I can sleep without the ambien at night :)
