Today I'm sick. Well we're all sick here at our house and we got it from Buddy (who has had the cough & runny nose for almost a week now). I don't like being sick (or when anyone else in my house is sick). It's hard to do anything and my patience level goes down. This morning I was pretty down. John went back to work (after calling off sick yesterday) and it was hard to be home alone (except for my ever present shadow - Buddy).
Buddy found a new game called the Magic Kleenex box. "Look Mom! I pull one out and another one pops up in its place." When I shoved the "magic" kleenexes back into the box (and they didn't come out as easy) Buddy came up with another game. "Look Mom! I can pull one out and rip it into a lot of little pieces. And they cover the floor. How fun."
Around eleven, I finally got him down for a nap and was able to take a short nap myself.
This afternoon I decided since I was sick that I would purge. No, not throw up. Purge my scrapbook supplies (and clean Buddy's room). Yes I know, most people take it easy when they're sick. I don't know why I started but it took the whole afternoon.
I must get the Crazy Award today. I'd like to thank the makers of generic Dayquil for reducing the fluid in my head so I was able to get out of bed. Also the people who built my apartment building, with the closet so tiny half my wardrobe is out in the open. And last but not least... I'd like to thank Buddy for being my constant shadow who "helped" me all day long.
