In the ideal world, it would be all organized, very nice, getting rid of stuff and sorting things out.
In reality, if you are a parent, you probably have an idea. You are trying to pack something and your child is unpacking something else in the meantime. Not to mention, to be able to stay on top of things for my work, household chores and making some healthy yumi food if possible...
And in the middle of this everything, my husband just badly threw his back off. He has had problems with his back on an off for a long time. But this time, it was probably the worst "incident" so far. Poor guy. He could hardly sleep. We were planning to pack as much stuff as possible this weekend and we ended up not packing almost anything.
Thank God, I've spend 4precious hours yesterday at the Korean Day Spa. A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!!!
I'll have to go there every month now. The wonderful refreshing and relaxing feeling didn't last very long, because my husband's back incident happen shortly after I came back home.. But, at least, it help me to stay sane and don't loose my s***, when we've spend today 6 precious hours at the urgent care.. Well, me and Eli on and off and Nick had to be there the whole time. But the baby didn't sleep, because he was too tired - who have kids know what am I talking about. Oh man.. it was so frustrating..
So many things to do and so many things to prepare. Finish up some photo projects and meet up with my clients in the meantime. Sometimes, I feel, that I have to be a super woman and cannot afford to be a human.
Luckily, my baby is very chilled and understanding dude and a team member. Thank God for him and the way he is.

I gotta run now, because I still need to pack something more, meet up with my clients and put the baby to bed.
