My mom watches the boys on Wednesdays and we haven’t changed that part of the routine. They love going to Grandma’s house. They played outside, were busy all day and came home tired!
I finally got to sit and work uninterrupted for an extended period of time. I made some macarons. I got things ready for the rest of the week. It was a productive day. I am incredibly grateful for the support- this is not going to be an easy journey. Despite the productivity, I was very anxious all day. I spent most of the day freaking out about one of us getting sick.
A few weeks ago, I had the same anxiety, which ended in a cooking marathon and 15 meals in our freezer in case Nate and I get sick at the same time and have to try to feed all of us while deathly ill. Everything is in disposable foil pans that don’t need to be washed and ready to pop in and bake. Even sick, we should be able to do that and keep our family fed.
Today I spent some time writing an emergency action plan in the event that one of us gets sick. Our spare bedroom is upstairs and doesn’t have access to a bathroom. The basement has a bathroom and while it probably isn’t the first place I’d choose to spend 2 weeks deathly ill, I think we can make it work. Nate and I are going to do some re-arranging and set up this weekend. I wrote out some steps for what happens if we get sick. I am still feeling really anxious about it, but it feels better to have a written plan that Nate and I have discussed. Hopefully tomorrow I will be so busy that I don’t have time to think.
