Not much excitement going on in my life right now. Most of my time is spent between doing things with the kids and doing things with the church. That’s not at all a complaint, in fact I’m very happy with my life these days. But whenever I sit down to write something here I feel like I have nothing noteworthy to say.
If I had any complaints, it would be that life is so busy that we never have sex anymore. Maybe once every two weeks. I remember when it was almost daily. I wish there was more, but I also know it’s just as much my fault as it is Jayson’s. We’re never together at the same time that we’re both in the mood. Things just don’t line up the way they are supposed to. I’d like to have sex right now, for example, but we just got home from church, Jayson is preparing lunch, and the kids are running around. It just doesn’t seem like a good time.
My incontinence is still a lingering issue. I have zero problems during the day anymore, even if I have to hold it for a while. If I have to hold it too long, then there is some leakage, but I’ve learned to just go to the bathroom as soon as I feel any urge. Nighttime is a different story. I wet myself nearly every night these days. For a while I was wearing Poise pads at night for a small amount of leakage, but recently I’ve gone back to wearing proper diapers at night because I’ve needed to.
We’re working on toilet training our daughter, the middle child, and it’s awkward for me (just like it was with the oldest) to be convincing her that she doesn’t want to be wearing diapers anymore even though I am wearing them.
I’ve always wanted to mention this in my here actually… Some people may have noticed that I almost never write anything specific about my kids, I never mention their names, never post photos, nothing like that. A lot of people can’t get enough about talking about really specific things about their children online, but I worry about privacy. I don’t want to expose them in a way online that makes them vulnerable. And this isn’t just a random over-protection out of nowhere. It’s not pleasant to write or talk about this, but one of my cousin’s toddlers was kidnapped, raped, and murdered several years ago. I’ve got tears in my eyes just from typing that sentence. But when they caught the guy they took his computer and found that he had been obsessively following my cousin on social media. Creepy. So I apologize if people want to know more about my kids, but I just keep most of it to myself.
