A day in the life

It’s been quite rough today….

Illness has invaded the ranks and it is depleting the defences.  I’ve managed to stave it off for 2 weeks but I’ve finally succumbed and raised the little white flag of defeat.  So I feel like crap.  It’s one of those nasty “in your lungs” types too.  We all have it.

Curls is affected the worst.  It’s playing havoc with his asthma and he’s not sleeping well so the behaviour is deteriorating as fast as his health……and my patience.

Himself is finally starting to kick it which is good.  It was him that brought it home from kindy.

The small one had a very rough night last night so, I had a very rough night last night.  I’m feeling more than slightly frazzled and curls is like a shark….he can sense weakness and so he has been larger than life today. 

 The husband is away for the night for business……I’m looking forward to him getting back.  I have to take my hat off to all the solo parents out there.  I am only a part time solo, but that is more than enough for me.  Kudos to them.

I long for a full night of sleep. Unbroken. Undisturbed….Oh well, the kids will be teenagers one day and I’ll probably be fighting to get them out of their beds.

Until then, I shall sleep as I am allowed. 

Thought for the day:-

Courage is not the absense of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear.
