Who's Complaining??

Yesterday was a great day! For the past 17 months I've done NOTHING for myself and EVERYTHING for Lucia. Which is great right? I mean, that's what mothers do! But honestly, mommies need time for themselves as well... even if that time is 5 minutes! So now, instead of napping when she naps (unless its crucial for my sanity) I think about things I can do, and do them. Crafts can be scratched out of my list even before I write it down. Although, maybe I should take on the challenge of doing something "crafty".
So, yesterday while studying my scriptures I came up with my master plan! I have to say, my plan has nothing to do with what I was reading :P. I decided to not complain AT ALL for a whole week!!! This also will include giving more thanks in my prayers and asking for nothing but strength! It will be extremely hard considering complaining and asking is in my nature :(. However, I KNOW I can do it! I think it will make me realize more how much I have going on in life. So............ it starts tonight! January 19th at 6 pm, until next Tuesday at 6 pm. Whoooa! I'm so excited! I will let you all know how it went!
So here's my last complaint... Lucia hasn't been sleeping well because she has an ear infection in both ears :( That really stinks! Have a fun day!

That's a really good goal--I would do well to follow your example!

Ear infections are no fun. :(
