Today was the first day of the first step in becoming a better wife, "Taking care of yourself". By this I mean keeping up my looks and hygiene. Just because I am a mother, 38 weeks pregnant and am attempting to work up until delivery does not give the excuse to let myself go. I want to keep myself attractive for my husband. This has proven to be more difficult then I had planned. It could be that because I am 2 weeks away from giving birth to our 2nd daughter or that our 6 year old was up at 7:00 a.m. (for me, that is too early. I love my sleep). Either way the day begins, making breakfast, cleaning up after breakfast, working on a school project, laundry...one thing leads to another and before I realize it, it is noon. I still haven't showered or even brushed my hair!
Noon means lunch. We were all starving and beginning to go a little crazy from being in the house all week/weekend due to the weather. We decided to go out to lunch and to the park. Although we had great family time and enjoyed the beautiful day, I still have not done anything to improve myself. Now back home and the 6 year old is in the bath as I should be and will be. I suppose "Better late then never" and "Never give up" will be my motto's for today.
Tomorrow is an another opportunity.
