Crazy Week

Posted in Uncategorized at 11:28 pm by laura

This was a crazy week. Not a crazy week because of too many things to do, but a crazy week because of all the crazy things happening.

  • On Monday, VA missed school with a 101 degree fever. Same one that AP had last week that landed her at the pediatrician’s office with an ear infection.
  • On Tuesday, I had the same virus and felt terrible; also AP pulled the Christmas tree down on top of herself, spilling water all over the rug, breaking ornaments, and knocking half the lights and ornaments on the floor.
  • On Wednesday, we made an offer on a house and sold our blue car, and I finally finished the curtains for my bedroom. (They’re hanging, and they look good.)
  • On Thursday, we called Poison Control because AP drank/sloshed on her clothes 1/4 of a bottle of decongestant–she was fine.
  • On Friday, we had freezing rain and school was cancelled, the girls got shots, we got to hang out with friends, my mom kept the girls for me all afternoon (so nice-Mama you’re the best!) and we got a disappointing counter-offer on the house (doesn’t look probable that we’ll get the house).

It was a big week. No wonder I’m exhausted. There have been times since I’ve had kids that I’ve thought that my life was totally boring and uninteresting. I told Adam tonight that this was definitely not a boring period…our lives are certainly interesting.
