Happy Friday!!   I am so happy it is Friday.  My ribs have continued to hurt a lot.  I saw the Dr on Wednesday and she said it is either a very bad sprain or a fractured rib.  No use in finding out which since there is no treatment for it.  She did give my pain pills which help to allow me to be able to sleep. 

-YESTERDAY-

I worked for most of the day.  Then I came home and made some supper.  Hubby had a meeting at church so I was in charge of homework and kid stuff.  It all went fine.   Erik got most of his homework done before hubby got home.  When hubby got home I went back to bed and rested and he finished up the homework.   Tommy and I listened to his book on tape and then we went to sleep.   He fell to sleep quickly and hubby moved him to his bed.   I read for a while and finished my book. 

The Pact by Jodi Picoult – 4/5

TODAY

My last meeting today is at 4:30 so I will be getting home a bit late tonight.   Josh has no school today so he is doing a couple of loads of laundry for me and has to pick up his room.  Erik has school today.   He was bummed about that.  

I ran a couple of errands this morning.  I put Erik and Tommy’s birthday money into their savings account.   I stopped at Walmart to buy pull-ups and I found a nice pair of dress shoes for work. 

SUPPER: Chicken, Ham and Rice Casserole – Peas and Carrots

-THE WEEKEND –
Saturday – we will be at the alpha retreat all day at church.  Hubby only wants to stay until noon.  We will see how it goes.   I am not sure I will be able to handle sitting all day.  That really makes my ribs hurt.    Josh is goint to watch the kids for us until he goes to work.   Amy will watch them after that until we get home.   It is so nice to have older kids who are responsible so we can trust them to watch the others. 

Sunday – We are going to church early to take advantage of their new brunch meal they are serving.  At 1:00 we are having our family pictures taken for our Christmas Cards.  I hope to be able to go and get groceries in the afternoon.  I might have to take either Erik or Josh to assist me since my ribs hurt so much.   We will see how I am feeling.  

I am not getting as much as I like to do usually.  It is always very hard for me to be laid up and not able to do what I want.  I am trying to take it easy and rest and read as much as I can. 

Hope you all have a great weekend!!!
