Having an okay day, or atleast productive.
So after 5 months of being so sick with my pregnancy, a week in the hospital, two weeks pretty immobile recovering from surgery... I am finally getting stuff done. Oh and I should mention, we moved in the middle of all this so my husband (who is not tidy or organized) did all the packing moving and limited unpacking / putting away that has been done.
Today I fully finished laundry for the first time in months. Cleaned and put away the dishes, unpacked three more boxes, reorganized the kitchen cabinets the way I want them, started organizing the hall closet, and dusted the whole house.
It feels nice to do things a normal person does. I never expected to think, Ahh chores... but I really have been. Though I admit, chores leaves quite a lot of time for your mind to wander. So whenever I start to get to a dark place, I take a break and come back here to read more of the wonderful support we all offer each other. This is the closest I've felt to a regular person in a long time. Thanks ladies.

Yay for a good day! Sounds like you really deserve one.
I also moved (just this past Monday) and also have a husband who packs in a very disorganized fashion (deodorant with pots and pans with remote controls...) Thing is, I just wasn't very motivated on the packing front after what had happened and as much as I would cringe when he did it, at least sh*t was getting done! Luckily, I am in charge of unpacking and though there are still tons of boxes and stuff to put away, I'm in control and get to do it alone and however I want! haha.
It also has been a great way to "move on" and since I'm very happy with the new neighborhood and apartment, I feel really positive right now. I have also thought to myself, "I feel like a regular person again". Still emotional, but it gets better every day.
I hope that you have many, many, many more good productive days.

Read about it on the blog
2 Corinthians 12:9 But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.

AWESOME! I am still only clear for very light activity. So I've been bored out of my mind pedaling the stationary bike and am still bleeding a little too much to be comfortable to get in the pool... Its nice to get back to activity but it sucks to be starting from literally zero! my husband just keeps saying, "Remember, they CUT THROUGH ALL your abdominal muscles less than a month ago, SLOW DOWN!"
