It's August

And I'm hanging in there. I'm still not better, but some days are better than others. The kids absolutely loved swimming lessons this week, and it got me dressed and out of the house every day. We also checked out a very nice free splash park, and had a fun play date with friends.

I've started taking some higher quality vitamins, and they really help. I was reading a PPD blog about them, and how depleted our bodies are after pregnancy. The two days when I did not take them, I was significantly more tired and drained. They come in capsules, so I think they're easier to absorb. Unfortunately, they are expensive, but if they make a big difference, we'll budget them in.

Today I did some major cleaning in the basement, both the storage area and the family room. It really needed it. I got rid of a ton of stuff, and that made me feel good. I think I did a bit too much because I'm pretty wiped out now! But the majority of it is DONE. A friend who was moving gave me a love seat and a couch that are in decent shape that will go in the family room. It's going to be much more comfortable down there.

I'm also on a mission to be more frugal and budget better, but that's a post for another day.
