Getting There

It's been almost a month since I last blogged and I'm feeling a bit monotonous.  I apologize if it feels that way to you to but in the end I guess that's how life has felt for me the past year. 

We had a really good trip out to Ontario.  It was very hot and humid but I got through it.  We planned a day off in between each day pretty much and even the long days only turned out to be about 4 or 5 hours of actually being at the activity.  The longest day was the one that I thought would be the easiest!  Ha was I in for a surprise!  Thankfully that was our very first day there so I was feeling at the top of my game.  I did realize that trips like Disney World or the whole idea of sight seeing and travelling will be very difficult if we ever get a chance to do those things.  It's the walking.  I can't go more than a couple of hours without exhausting myself.  When we went to Niagra Falls we paid double for parking because it was too long of a walk for me to go from one destination to the other.  But all in all it was good and I'm very thankful that I had no major issues before or during the trip! 

Since we got back I've really tried to settle into the whole "housewife" role.  Surprisingly it's been pretty good.  Maybe the fact that it's summer and the sun is shining helps.  Or maybe it's because the kids are off and there are always kids coming and going.  Whatever the reason it's been nice.  Nice to feel useful and productive.  Life definitely isn't the same but I think I may finally be adjusting.  It's a work in progress but I'm getting there.
