Past 2 days

 The last 48 hours have been so tiring. I am exhausted, sore, every muscle and joint in my body hurts. Yes, I have over did it the past couple days. Yesterday I had to deal with Marissa and Rebecca trashing the house, getting into everything, they did clean it up some though. I had to make deviled eggs, steamed seasoned shrimp and a salad to go along with the steaks, hotdogs, baked beans, corn on cob, steamed clams that Jim and Joe cooked. We ate so much, then Joe made everyone a banana split for dessert. I shared mine with Daniel, that lil piggy ate most of it. Emma started feeling really horrible, so Dan took Emma and the kids home, so Emma could rest. Jim went to bed at 7pm last night, and Rebecca was in bed an hour later. I slept until 7am this morning and Rebecca woke up at 7:15. We got ready and took Jim to work, and then went to Emma's after we dropped him off. I knew Emma would need help today, cause she felt so horrible yesterday. I was right. She still felt crappy. I made myself a half pot of coffee, and fixed everyone pancakes, sausage and scrambled eggs for breakfast. Emma was able to eat 2 pancakes and 1 link of sausage. Then she laid down on the couch. The girls went outside to play and Daniel hung out with me in the kitchen while I did her dishes and cleaned the stove and counter. And I relaxed in between with my hot coffee. The girls played outside until lunch, then came in to eat. Lunch over and they were back outside until I left at 3pm. I was tired when I got home. I read a few journals, and woke up at 4:40pm sitting here at the computer, lol. I had to start our dinner. I made Jim and Joe each a huge stuffed pepper, salad, shrimp left over from yesterday. After dinner we had an icecream sundae. Joe went downstairs to his house to go to bed. He ate too much, lol. Rebecca begged to get ready for bed so she could go to sleep. And Jim just woke up on the couch in time to watch the news. I'm going to finish this entry and read a couple journals, then go to bed myself. I am staying home the next couple days to get my house cleaned up. It is a mess, especially the kitchen. I hope everyone's weekend and Labor Day holiday was a good one. Maybe I can sleep in a little later in the morning.

Love to all...................
