Finally. A day at home. School is underway. The fog has lifted. Knitting is in hand.
I’ve started meal planning again. My mind seems to be clearing, and my chiropractor has moved me to a trial of once a week adjustments, down from twice a week. I cannot begin to tell you how happy, and yet nervous that makes me. I know he wouldn’t do this unless he thought I was ready. My life has been cluttered with things from the accident, and I feel like slowly, one thing at a time, life returns to normal. Light is shining through the fog to the end of the tunnel. I’m so grateful for these mornings at home. They are my favorite.
Silje is practicing her piano. David is doing his math. Ingrid is chewing on toys. Solveig and Elias are coloring.
I love this.

September 11, 2013 at 5:45 amBeautiful pictures and I can hear the calm in the tone of your writing. That is a good thing; I could sense the anxiety in many of your recent posts. Last spring I was hospitalized for several days for pre-eclampsia after the baby came (who knew you could have pre-E following the birth?? Not I) and I feel I can relate so much to how you are feeling as you write about the aftermath of your accident. My blood pressure scare triggered incredible anxiety that I still suffer from (less so every day now) and I understand the happiness that comes from “weaning” treatment – in my case medicine, in yours, chiropractor visits – and yet feeling nervous about the possible results of that decrease. I am still on medication and we are decreasing in small increments but even so, the light is shining clearly again in my life and my health condition no longer dictates my entire life as it did for several months recently. It is amazing how grateful I can be for the return to normal after normal was removed for a while. I am so glad that things have calmed down a little for you; your blog is one of my favorites because I often feel like I could have written the post myself. Thanks for sharing even the hard things and how you are finding joy in and through them.
