Busy, busy

It's pouring here this morning and it's my son's birthday. I am trying to finish all my work early so we can go to dinner tonight. I've been working so much lately, even through the weekend to catch up.
I'm trying to get productive early since I have so much to accomplish today. My brain doesn't start being "creative" until after 9 am but I need to force it with some coffee this morning.
Yesterday was weird(hard) as I saw a woman in town I know was pregnant at the same time I was with my first miscarriage. It is hard to see her little girl and not get melancholy as mine would be the exact same age. Apparently, she is pregnant again and looks to be as far along as I would have been had I carried the child. I know God puts these situations before me as an opportunity to remember my children and offer up the suffering it brings for something worthwhile. I am, at the same time, aware of how human and weak I am when it hurts because of the loss, not being able to hold them and love them here on earth. Anyway, I don't want to drudge up yesterday's emotions today, I have to be focused. I'm sure other women have gone through this and that helps knowing I am not alone.
I have a meme to do via Tracy this week and will get on that task later this evening.

I took the kids to Mass this morning and all went well. My oldest has been having trouble with medications but he hung in there. It felt so different going back to my parish, there was a peace that I haven't felt in a long time and that was surely refreshing. We have a wonderful priest and seminarian there and I want to try to ease my way back. So much damage had been done to my family and it was brutal. Some things can be healed, I don't know if it all will be "okay" but I will go and do what God asks of me.
I don't know if other bloggers are having issues but I can't title anything today. Maybe I need to reboot, who knows. Goofy blogger. On a positive note(also) laurathecrazymama is with child! Now that, along with the motu proprio is cause for celebration! To life! (Women talk warning)We are still trying, still waiting for that temp spike and a hearty luteal phase. I am going to go herbal soon to aid my clomid. Only a few more months so I need to act.

You know what? We have no A/C. It's broken. 90 degrees, 3 tired kids and no A/C. We are in the South(not the deep South, but south nonetheless) and it's hot. But, I will offer it up. I know the perfect cause ;) Kids are yelling every 5 minutes "I'm sweating!". My daughter has found a singing frog toy that is making everyone nuts. We are out of milk too. Haha. I'm not complaining, it's just funny when I think of our situation. I have to find humor in such things. I think it's time to get out a deck of cards and some popsicles. Anyone have any better ideas?
