Taking the Scenic Route

I said something a few days ago about Zane figuring out how to help with laundry.  Today he added another skill…hanging up clothes.  He was so excited that every time he got something on a hanger, he would jump up and down on the bed.  He also wanted me to lift him so he could hang it up himself.  After about 2 pieces of clothes my back went out.  I about cried.  I was so happy with how enthusiastic and proud of himself he was and he was so upset when I couldn’t lift him to help hang the clothes up.  I might have to drag a chair in there so he can use it to climb up and hang clothes, but I will have to have Zach do it because I can hardly move.

*kicking myself*  I really wanted to get all the laundry done.  I am so ticked.  I can’t even lift the laundry basket any more.  I also wanted to finish the dishes.  I am so tired of hurting.  Why could this have been with Zane’s pregnancy instead of this one…I didn’t have a child depending on me then, just cats.  Now I have to wait for Zach to get home to get food because I know I can’t stand in front of the stove, much less lift the pan.  It just isn’t safe.
