In the meantime, I'm just a mess.
 

Oh, hon

Aww. I'm sorry

I am off to M's on Thursday! Weee!

Only-- I either have allergies, or I came down with a wicked cold in the middle of the night I hope it's allergies. That way, they will go away when I go up north, probably. How would I tell, I wonder? If it's any help (and it's a consolation, I have to say, even while TMI), my snot is clear. But I am sneezing my brains out. Which makes it really hard to drive, as I can't sneeze with my eyes open.

I have a new friend, and her son is my son's new best bud. They hung out yesterday and the day before. I am getting to know the mom and I really like her a lot, but this weird thing happened. Yesterday I woke up so, so, SO tired because I hadn't gotten any sleep the night before. DS tried to sleep with me and kept getting up down up down up down, and then he finally went to his own bed-- but then I heard him up at six-freaking-thirty in the morning, spinning those da*n Bey blades. It was so loud that I thought he was jumping off the top bunk repeatedly. So, more no sleep.

So then, New Friend and son come over at 2pm-- I swear I told New Friend to drop her ds off because I really needed to rest while the kids played. I swear I told her that. But she stayed.

And as delirious as I was, I sat and talked to her for three hours. Losing my voice, blurry vision, and all. Maybe she needed to stay with her son because they're new friends and she didn't want to leave him-- that's the only thing I can think of.

I know I looked like hell, and she did mention a couple times how tired I looked. I did not know what to say.

I wanted to say "I really, really like you, but you have to go now so I can get some rest". But I didn't. And I think that's part of why I came down with this...whatever it is. Ugh.

[ian'smommaya]

i have allergies around this time of year too. they are so bad sometimes.

i got the labels up on flickr if anyone wants to see. www.flickr.com/photos/39585945@NO5/7238784558/

[ian'smommaya]

well, that didn't work. go to flickr and search for [e-mail]

[Maiasaura]

Where are you guys?

Man...I'm trying not to freak. I am supposed to leave tonight at 4am to go see M....and last night, ds spiked a fever. Not just a fever but a 103.9* and I've been giving him Tylenol and Ibuprofen every 4 hours and it's still 100-point-whatever, even with the meds. He was at 102.4* this morning

We have a Dr. appt for 10am. Please, mamas, send energy....I want ds to feel better but this is really sh*tty timing! OMG I can't not see M, either. Frick. Maybe it's something he can get abx for. I hope.

Fun to have a new friend!  Too bad she didn't get the your cue that you needed some rest.  You're probably right that she just wanted to be around since they are new friends.  Or maybe she's lonely and likes the company.  Maybe she's like me and doesn't get much social interaction so she can't see social cues. It's nice to have a new friend, though.

I hope your son feels better.  Poor guy!!   Sending lots of healthy energy to your son and *get her butt to M* energy your way!!  Safe travels!!

ian'smommaya: love the labels!  they are really whimsical, I like!!  You must be very proud of them.  Where do you sell your goods?

[Mommy2Austin]

I'm around I've been lurking mostly.

Maiasaura- I hope DS feels better quick and everything goes smoothly for your weekend with M!

DH took ODS out of town with him for the day so its me, YDS and the girls today. I'm trying to do fun things just him and I while the girls are napping.

Yeah, it wasn't not getting social cues, though-- I *know* I said leave your ds here so I can lay down and get some rest. I am so sure I did! That's not a cue, that's deliberate "don't stay here", isn't it? Actually, what I think I said was "I don't mind if S comes over, but I am not up for visiting because I don't feel well". That's pretty in-yo'-face obvious, I thought.

So-- YAY, even though ds has been on Ibuprofen and Tylenol nearly around the clock, and he still has a fever, we just came back from the doc, and my trip is a go! I'm sure Caregiver won't be thrilled that he has to stay home from school tomorrow, and maybe Friday if he's not fever-free w/o meds, but whatever. I can go, I can go! It's just one of those dumb sudden-onset childhood things. No strep, urine was clear. YAY!

It's such a weird illness-- every 4 hours, he fades and the fever spikes. I give meds, and 1/2 hour later he's got a normal temp and is feeling fine I don't care, though-- ds is fine, I'm fine, I'm going to see my true love!

[Valerie.Qc]

I'm here. Quiet but here. There is a lot of action in my province and my focus have been on that and on family life lately.

Maia, have a great time!

It's nice that the boys got some one on one time with their parents!  Was it nice for you, too?  :)  

Hi Valerie!

What is everyone up to for Memorial Day weekend?  My DH has been working pretty long hours lately getting a project finished so I am excited to have him here for an extended amount of time!  We have a weekend of baseball, bbqs and my best girlie is coming in to town for a few days so I get a real life hug from her!  I think that will be the high light of my weekend.

yey! how old is ds? if it helps at all childhood fevers and illnesses in a healthy child drop off dramatically at age 7.

truly.

i went to a class last night concerning babies and childrens herbalism. mostly to meet an herbalist i have never met in person, to see how she teaches her classes and to connect. it went well. i learned a lot in those departments.

it's been raining here tons! which is great for the gardens and farmers but not so much for outside the house stuff. i love the rain.
