What I Got?

Of course my symptoms start on a Friday.
Wound up leaving work to come home.
My attire has been my pj's.
My diet has consisted of water, gatorade, cereal, toast, crackers, motrin, and delsym.
My hunger comes in spurts, but it doesn't take much to fill.
I've used a whole big box of kleenex.
I cringe everytime I cough because it hurts so bad now.
My nose is so plugged, I couldn't smell the cookies my hubby baked last night.
My fever has not gone under 100 since Friday, with the highest being 102.8.
(Too close to 103 for my comfort)
But what sucks is that when I get to go down, the sweating causes me to get hot, and start coughing.
Damned if I do, Damned if I don't.
So, What I Got?

I'll let you know the answer after 2:45!
(That's when I got an appointment.)

After Appointment: Well, it isn't the flu (like I thought) thankfully.
Just a nasty sinus infection.
Hopefully I'm on my way to getting better.
My son is missing his Mommy.

Confessions of a Mutha!

Hi. I'm Alison.
And I still use the baby monitor for my 3 1/2 year-old.
Yep.
Every night before I go to sleep, I turn it on.
Reason: because I'm a hard sleeper and I'm scared that if my son calls me or gets sick, I won't hear him.
Which, has happened before.
My hubby is a light sleeper, so he usually hears.

So, yeah......who knows when I will stop turning on that monitor!

Any of you mothers have some confessions?

Monday, Monday, Blah Blah, Blah Blah Blah

Monday.
The start of a new week.
But I'm being pessimistic, so it's the end of the weekend.
I had butterfingers today.
I seemed frazzled and not together.
(Seriously, I apologized to my students even.)
Got home.
Got me some love from my Cy boy since I don't see him on Monday mornings because I have duty and have to leave the house before he wakes up.
I almost cried on my way to school because of this. Even though he is almost 4, I am still not over having to leave him.
Took me a little nap in my comfy clothes on my warm sofa in my warm blanket.
Those crazy people with the nontoxic cleaner that they like to eat to show that it is nontoxic woke me up by trying to sell me the stupid stuff.
And my 2 dogs don't know how to share. Growling, yelping, and squeeking toys fill the air.
Thank God for Tuesday!


Tues-day ([tooz-dey)
