So things with Laura have settled down finally. We never did make it in to the doctor on Wednesday. She woke up completely fever free. I decided that since she was feeling fine, I would go to work and she’d go to daycare. Around 11, Helen emailed me that Laura was starting to run a […]
All month long both kids have been fighting ear infections and junk. Most recently, Laura’s have started to act up. I thought at first that she was just saying her ears hurt because Warren has been getting so much attention for his. When he is teething, she will say her teeth hurt too. I have […]
I usually don’t follow politics that closely. Typically politicians will vote the way they want, and we find a way to make life work with the decisions they make. Right now there are protests going on every day at the state capitol. Gov. Scott Walker has introduced a bill that will strip unions of all […]
I was more productive today at home than I have been in the last few weeks. I finally got tired of the house looking as bad as it was. I loved having it clean and picked up all the time. It took effort to maintain, but not nearly as much to do the full clean […]
Before I get into Silverlicious, I’ll back up and recap Friday and the doctor appointments. I was feeling fine Friday morning. I called and cancelled my appointment since I felt it would have been a waste of time for the doctor to look at me. Warren’s ears were still a bit cloudy. We changed him […]
I was feeling pretty good yesterday. Today is the opposite. This afternoon my ears and throat started hurting. As I type, it hurts to swallow. Coughing also hurts. I may take my special cough syrup tonight. Part of me is wondering if I haven’t picked up strep somewhere. It was really challenging tonight. Robert and […]
This is can be taken a few ways. 1. I am mostly over my sinus/bronchial infection. I have one more pill in my Z pack to take. 2. I am coming out of survival mode from book issue. This week I am working only 2 days. 3. I finally got my haircut again tonight. I […]
I wanted to stay on track of my frequent posting. I am tried and it is time for bed, so this will be short. I spent most of today dealing with a whiny, clingy, sick boy. He’s had a cold for about 2 weeks and started running a fever this weekend. I took him into […]
Today was very much needed. In the interest of full disclosure, I wasn’t looking forward to it yesterday. I was still feeling pretty miserable and wasn’t sure how I would be feeling. It is hard enough to take care of kids when you are sick. Add in a sick little boy, and today wasn’t looking […]
Every night before bed, Laura says the Lord’s prayer and then does blessings for people. Without fail, her blessings start with “Mommy, and Daddy, and Warren, and me.” She will add in other people in her life as she thinks about them. The past few nights she has started adding in Helen, Sammy, Sammy’s mom, […]
