In many ways this has been a long, difficult week. It started with a sore throat Sunday night. For days I’ve been dosing myself with colloidal silver, oil of oregano, ibuprofen and lots of hot, hot tea. I think I’m finally back to normal.

In spite of all of that though I did have some good times this week – laughing with my children, going on a date last night with my husband, reading and relaxing.
This post will give you something to think about. I know that I try to have the house tidy and supper ready when my husband gets home from work. I just feel that he would much rather come home to a clean house, happy children, good food and a content wife.
