Energy and the lack thereof

So I must be getting better. The households tasks are actually starting to irritate me because they are not done. I actually swept the floor today because I just could not stand the crunchies anymore. Alas I then discovered that the crunchies were hiding the stickiy spots from me and now I really have to mop the floor. It's funny, when I was sick I could walk around the house (okay stumble is more like it) and the messy bathroom or the fuzz in the corners were easily overlooked and ignored. Now that I am starting to feel better, I am getting this 'ugh! my house is a mess!' feeling and may start doing something about it. I was at least able to keep up on the dishes and cat litter during that horrible last week.

The biggest problem I have is that once I start feeling better and the urge to clean builds I have to try and moderate it. Otherwise I will use all the new found energy that my body has and totally wipe myself out. Then I will slide back into one or two maybe even three more days of being really sick again. I should know I have done it enough times.

Pause.....

Tinkle...Crash!.... "Um kids what was that?"

"A glass!"

"Broken?"

"Yeah, we were building a fort and...."

"OUT! Out!"

"But I need my toys!"

"Out!!!!"

Sigh, sorry for the interuption. It seems once again my lack housekeeping skills over that last week has reared its ugly head again. Though this time I could blame it on my husband since it was his glass left in the living room. He had some friends over last night and the rule is to collect all the garbage and dishes and put them in the kitchen at the end of the night. This obviously has not been happening lately or we would not have heard the lovely Crash! moments ago.

Oh well, I do hope that I can go swimming with Raven tonight even though the game has been cancelled. Of course if this keeps up I may just want to nap instead. Energy - something the kids have too much of and I have not enough of.
