If it were not for NaBloPoMo I would not be posting right now.
I am sick. It’s not fair for a mom to be sick. Who takes care of us? We have things to do, we have people to tend to, we have meals to make. My head feels like a watermelon that is about to explode. Heavy and stuffed to the brim…
But my day went on as usual… breakfast, cleaning up, starting stock for supper, hanging out with the kids, lunch, doing other misc. things in the kitchen, watching a movie, making supper etc…
At this moment, I am ready to be done. I finally finished making super and it is in the end stages simmering on the stove. Chicken and dumplings, ultimate comfort food and great sick food…
Of course being right before supper it means that it is the witching hour when kids are getting tired and hungry and everything is getting on their nerves… especially their siblings so I gave them the look (not my proudest moment) and asked them to go do something in the computer room so that I could have a bit of quiet and they went and did just that.
Luckily Willa also fell asleep about 45 min ago so I can sit for a few minutes trying to keep my head from exploding while waiting for Simon to get home…
As moms we should be exempt from colds…
It’s not fair to be sick and be a mom at the same time…
Awww — you’re right! it isn’t fair… but then, women are strong and that’s why we can do and overcome so much. I also think this is one of those times where having “sister wives” would really come in handy – lol
I hope you get better soon.
I totally agree with you….we should be exempt! Hope it doesn’t last long for you.
