Six weeks into 2018

We have been into 2018 for six entire weeks now.  Time is flying by...again (or maybe still?).  Today is another Monday...but we only have four school days this week!  I suspect I might be working all four of them though...but I am not going to complain about that!

Our family a whole was feeling a little icky this weekend.  Catherine is definitely battling a cold, and Andrew had a slight one as well.  Robert was staying off his leg, and I didn't feel 100% either.  Thomas had confirmation class as part of his Sunday School yesterday and I was the adult volunteer during Sunday School, but then we came home and just spent the rest of the day laying low.  I felt badly that I didn't get more things finished, but then I realized I need to cut myself some slack.  I washed three loads of laundry, folded those and another three loads, finished our taxes, hand washed some dishes, emptied the dishwasher, made potato soup for dinner, and spent a great deal of time working on band stuff.  I understand that there are still so many more things I need to do, and yes, I probably had the time to get some of them finished, but it's not like I sat around all day and did nothing!

Someday I won't have so many dishes or clothes to wash, and I have no idea what I will do with all of my time.  Maybe I will live close enough that I can help with grandkids.  That would be a tremendous blessing!
