Dinner was delicious....and more.....

do you know what that title means? I actually tasted my dinner last night!! WHOOT WHOOT...I could breathe through both sides of my nose last night and I think that helped. I can't taste everything I eat, but I tasted my salad (and I added ALL the fixings!!). It's so exciting to taste again! I ate some of Lindsay's Scotch Krispies (recipe here)...they are soooo delicious too!! LOL

I thought I'd be able to sleep in bed last night...but that lasted about 10 minutes before I felt like relaxing....and my pile O' pillows fell off the side of my bed and made me lay too flat...so back to the couch...Maybe for Christmas I'll get to sleep in bed again?! I can't wait. But I'm making amazing progress and am so happy to be feeling so well!

Of course, I am taking it a little easier than last week so far as doing chores around the house. It helps that the children are home from school to help with chores. Harley's been "in training" to do laundry. I go down and guide him verbally and he does the laundry. Yesterday he started it all on his own!! I just have to make sure he doesn't overload it and that he remembers to set the temperature. He's enjoying helping out so much!! The other day he asks me "mom is the dishwaher clean or dirty". I tell him it's clean...thinking he was looking for cup?...it brought me to tears to realize that he was actually unloading the dishwasher without even being asked or prompted. No, he didn't get the right lids on the right sippy cups, no he didn't get the plates in the right place BUT that doesn't matter...I waited til he was in his room watching a movie and put them where they belong...I was SOOOO proud that he did that!! I still cry just thinking about it! < < < oh I should put that 'story' on my Harley blog too....so you may see it there C&P'd

Well, it's still quiet here, everyone is asleep so I'm going to relax for a little while longer...
