Feeling Better

I suppose with all that we have gone through in the past few months, my body demanded a rest. And rest I have done! I woke up this morning when Holly came into the room. John was sitting here at the computer which is in our bedroom. I heard her whisper, “Daddy, can we have lunch now?” Lunch? I looked at the clock. It was 11:30. I still have a cough and become weak by doing the least little thing but I am feeling better. Thank you so much for your prayers and good wishes.

There are so many things that need to be done. Our container should arrive in a US port soon. Then we will have it shipped here. John has rented a storage building and our belongings will stay there until we know our next step. I want to do some organizing of our things that are already here. Some things we brought with us from Romania. We also have boxes of things that my parents have generously stored for many years; things that we did not want to bring to Romania. If I can go through some of those, our living space will be a bit less cluttered. I also need to make a school schedule. I am still not sure what was accomplished before I woke up this morning but the kids treated the rest of the day like a Saturday. We did do one science lesson this week and they read all week. I am looking forward to next week, Holly’s birthday, time with family and hopefully finding routine. What about you?

It is nice to get back to a routine. I am finding that it is pretty hard to get far behind in schoolwork even when we have sick or mental health days. Hope you uare feeling completely back to normal by next week- sounds like you have a lot to do with your container coming and all!

So glad to hear you're doing somewhat better. Don't worry too much about getting everything back on schedule too quickly - just go slow - or you'll be back down again.

Glad you are starting to mend some. I well know those sicknesses and the thoughts of everything being backed up while I'm down. One step at a time. It all gets done eventually, or if it didn't it was not essential anyway.
Blessings to all,

Well I'm glad you're feeling better. It's hard to get organized when you're sick. Have a Happy Easter with your family.

Hi Karen,

Sorry you've been sick but hopefully God used the time to make you fully aware of his presence. We haven't had a good routine for "school" all year. We just keep plugging away, lots of reading and learning all the life lessons coming our way.

Blessings,
Cindy Calvert
