vitamin D and "V"

I can't lie, I have not been a happy camper lately. Honestly this whole foot thing sucks. There are so many things I want to/have to do around the house that I can't do. Trevor's potty training was progressing fantasticly, now it's a a stand still because i can't physically take help him in the potty. He is 3 1/2 and REALLY ready. Matthew is even ready and I can't do it, and it kills me. It takes me 15 minutes to put a load of laundry on, and an hour to do a simple dish wash in my makeshift kitchen. My floor has horrible messess all over and I can't get on the floor to clean it, and my poor husband has been working his butt off trying to get the kitchen prepped for the cabinets that are coming soon, so he doesn't have time/or energy to get on the floor to do that. I can't go grocery shopping, I can't go get a card, let alone a present for my dear cousin Shauna's wedding tomorrow (lets hope Russ has some card sauvy or I take no responsibilty Shauna)

and this just touches on all the stuff i can't do, and all the frustrations I have.

but tonight

I got a little bit of vitamin D and a little bit of Vitamin "V"

We BBQ'd some chicken and sat in our back yard in the sun, with some drinks (VITAMIN V(odka) and I sat back and let the sun (Vitamin D) shine on my face, and I started to feel better.

I started to think of all the good things to look forward to........

....like, by the time the cabinets are in, I'll be able to put weight on my foot and unpack properly in my brand new kitchen!!!!

and like.... how our old house was shaded over and dark and gloomy by 4:00 on a summer day, and now our new house is west facing and has glorious sun until 8-9:00 (ask me again mid August if I still love this)

and how.... tomorrow I get to watch my beautiful cousin Shauna marry her Prince Charming Johan in Queens park, one of my favorite childhood/teenage hangouts.


Despite my broken foot and bad luck to have the surgery, there are still things in life worth smiling about.

And hopefully tomorrow morning when the Vitamin "V" has worn off I will still be able to hold on to this blissfull feeling I have tonight.
