Headache :(

So I think I am going through drug withdrawals. Last week I had a horrible root canal and I was on prescription pain killers for most of the week, and then I have been on IBProphen every four hours also.  Today I have a killer head ache.  So I'm wondering if it is withdrawals from the pain killers?  Maybe so.  Anyway,  my head is pounding.

I had a great Sunday.  My sweetheart let me sleep in on Sunday. (I let him sleep on Saturday, its kind of a trade off we do) I survived at church.  Its kinda sad how church is almost just a survival for me with the kids.  I did love Sunday School and Relief Society being kid free and actually feeling the Spirit a little bit. After church B and I teamed up on dinner of Spaghetti.  So another little thing we do, is after we get everyone feed on Sundays, we try to sneak off to bed for a nap. The trick is to sneak off and leave the other one with the kids :)  Okay, I know that sounds mean, but we usually both end up taking a nap if we can time it with T's nap. Yesterday T actually woke up just as it was time to lay down, but she didn't sleep very long so I just brought her into our bed and we both feel asleep.  I was totally expecting B to come take a nap too, but he shut the door so it was quiet and went and played with the other three angels.  So I got to sleep in and take a nap.  That doesn't happen often at all!  So last night.....I couldn't sleep.  That was frustrating :)  I guess I could have saw that one coming.

So I am trying to do better at following all the little thoughts I have. Yesterday after church I thought that I should talk to my neighbor friend who is due any day.  I just wanted to let her know that if she needed to drop off her kids in the middle of the night she was welcome to. So this morning I got a phone call.  She had her baby last night and needed someone to watch the other two for a few hours today.  I was so glad that I talked to her yesterday so she felt like she could call me today.  We had them over and all the little ones played and had fun.  So I'm sure that was the Spirit urging me to talk to her yesterday,  if I had waited a day it would have been to late to offer the help.  I'm so glad I was able to help someone today.

As I think about the Christmas Season, I thought it would be wonderful to try and do an act of service each day of December.  Maybe I've just been more observant,  but opportunities to serve have been brought to me.  I LOVE IT!  I think it is a tender mercy from Heavenly Father, because I know as I serve I feel so much better myself.

So to think about the Savior today, go do something for someone else :)
