A Birthday Contemplation

This weekend was a combination of blessings and curses. The first blessing, my lovely mother in law was in town and offered to help us get the house organized. She and Scott did a herculean effort and the house is beginning to look like a house rather than a pile of boxes. The curse was the stomach virus that put me out of commission for the weekend and caused me to cancel my birthday plans for a second year in a row. This beings me to second blessing, a second bathroom. Never before have I been so grateful that we now have a second bathroom, allowing me to pray to the porcelain god in privacy. Sometimes it is the little things in life!
