Milestones & planting flowers
I’m still having extreme fatigue from the shot but I’m trying to work thru it and get things done. The kids have been wanting to go for a walk so we did that this afternoon and when we got back I re-potted my Christmas Cactus and got some seedlings planted that were recently germinated. Since it’s still too early to have anything outside yet in Colorado, I got the grow lights set up in the hot tub room and got everything situated in there until it’s nice enough. Also, my daughter is officially potty trained. I can’t believe we are out of the diaper stage, forever! What a week!

Side effects from second COVID shot
Today is my third day post COVID-19 second vaccine shot. I’m mostly out of pain at this point but I’m super tired. My body is bouncing back, like it should and I’m thankful for that. I was scared I’d have complications or other issues with it but I’m getting thru it fine. Not bad for a girl with two auto-immune diseases. I’m trying to pace myself today so I’m not over doing it but the body aches and headache are gone. I’ve gotten caught up on stuff from the past two days where I basically did nothing but take care of my kids. I cooked minimally and I did a…

Well, I did it. Second shot.
I’m already feeling a bit crummy so I’m going to go to bed early tonight.

Great Weekend with the kids
We did a lot this weekend. Family soccer game, bike rides, and fishing! I’m forever reminded that these are their biggest memories and I live to fulfill them with joy and happiness. Being present.

Bunny House
It was a great weekend. We mostly stayed home getting projects done. We are needing to use the trailer that we were using as the Bunny’s shelter so we decided to make him his own home. The kids had fun with it and the Bunny ran inside as soon as it was done. Hopefully, that was his seal of approval.

Week 4 – New Medication
This week all the senses have deepened. 1. My patience level is at an all-time high. My youngest is terrible at going on drives and she starts screaming and fussing the minute she’s put in the vehicle. We have been doing test runs with her more and more to get her more used to being in a vehicle again. This quarantine has been rough since we are still under lockdown as a family. Anyway, I wasn’t stressed at all when she started fussing. I didn’t anticipate that she would lose it at all, I just had the positive attitude that she’d get through it and we’d get home. Which we…

COVID-19 Vaccine side effects
I knew I would be tired an a little run down. I didn’t think the vaccine would hit me as much as it did. I was mega tired. So tired that I even tried to sleep while the kids were awake (for Mom’s of little’s you know how impossible that is to even try, which tells you the level of tired I was). I had a terrific headache all day long. I took the kids outside for a few hours and I think that made me feel worse. The sun was mega bright and it wasn’t jiving with my headache. I had body aches that generally made me feel uncomfortable.…

I got my COVID-19 Vaccine.
So far so good. Grabbed some Arby’s on the way home so I could have two small vanilla shakes ready for the kids. Good thing, because Zahkya cried the whole time I was gone. Poor thing. I got my first shot. I get my second shot on 4/19 and I should be completely immune 2 weeks after that. Yay. Thanks, science. I’ll let you know if I grow any additional limbs, or if I start hearing radio stations in my head.
