About nine hours after I said I was fine, I discovered in no uncertain terms that I was not. I guess cuddling with a sick kid has it’s risks. Today I’m still feeling blechy but not nearly as bad as yesterday. It’s a fever and a headache that are my worst problems at the moment. […]

I really should have learned by now
I should have learned that procrastination doesn’t pay. So often, when I decide that I can put off a pile of tasks, something unexpected happens. Days like that require me to put aside birthday shopping and black-pants-finding plans, and instead spend the day, from 4am on, holding a barf bucket for a poor little person […]

Oh, poor me. I was finally feeling like I was at the end of my cold. It had been two weeks and I just had a bit of a cough left. And then WHAM! BAM! POW! I had a sneezing fit this morning and have been congesting up more and more as the day progressed. […]

I dropped Eamonn off at preschool this morning and decided to take action and do something about my desperate hair situation. My bangs were down past the tip of my nose and I’ve been grousing for a month. I went someplace different than my usual, and on the way home I passed the Salvation Army […]

So, I went and got myself a head cold. It’s not my favorite thing in the world, that’s for sure. I’ve pretty much wanted nothing more than to curl up under a rock all day. I’ve shirked all responsibility except that of the motherly kind today (I actually did alright in that department – we […]
