New Year Happy?

My new year hasn't kicked off so good. I haven't eaten out yet, does that count as good? New years eve I had to head home for some much needed rest before lunch. I couldn't even focus. I ended up napping with Alaina (no daycare Monday) and watching her so Jeff could work on drywalling our new bedrooms. Today he's almost done with the walls in the second room. Saturday his Dad and Mom are coming up so that the guys can put the drywall on the ceiling. After a fiasco Jeff had a few years ago, he's decided he'll do all the mudding and taping himself. And then, finally!, paint and trim! This may be the only remodeling we get done for a long time, so I'm excited to see how it turns out!
As for the taking care of myself and my home, I'm off to a rocky start! Laundry needs to be done, and some mending. I did well on not eating out the last few days. We had steak with a wonderful Manhattan sauce (courtesy of Rachel Ray) on New Year's Eve with Stacey. I'm proud of myself for getting my act together and cooking yummy porkchops and rice for Jeff and I last night, too. Today begins the big test, trying not to get takeout when I'm so tired. Alaina astounded Jeff and I by eating a cop of fruit last night, but she would only eat when Aunt Stacey served it to her. I'm going to try and reorganize my cupboards before next week because she's figured out where all the treats are stored and she snacks when I'm not looking.
I've got another call into the doctor's office for him to return on Friday. He's out on vacation, but I'm hoping to get somemore testing done to figure out what's what. Tomorrow, I'll drum up all the energy I have to have breakfast with a good friend who's back from California for a post holiday holiday! Stay Happy and Stay Healthy everyone!
