It's been a bit of an epic roller coaster emotion week (again). Bewildered is a good word. Anchored in the storm.
Monday:
Fantastic day off work, though it did mist and spit all day. Took a bike ride with H and her boys. F had a great time and it was so good to have a change. She got all worn out after lunch and a walk, she was literally asleep in the saddle - even when I took her off the bike and sat her on the porch step while I put the bike away she kept sleeping. Poor little potato.
Then we went out and found a cabinet that will fit in the bathroom (it better!!) Pictures forthcoming.
S had a big day at work and then went over to P's to do some app stuff. Poor guy finally got home about 10:30 / 11?
Tuesday
Rubbish sleep as F woke in the night with ear ache. Kicking myself for takin her out in the weather. Ibprofin and heating pad at 2:30am ('that's much better mommy.' *melting) woke up spiffy as you please and decided to chance it at nursery. Late for work though as took longer making decision.
Called by the nursery at 3 pm to pick up little pumpkin who woke up pale and unusual from her nap. Dropped everything, raced across town, mentally berating myself for leaving her. Then, she promptly started running and chasing other kids as we left. Visit to the pharmacy, crashed into the doctor's office without making an appointment, doctor gave an antibiotic ear spray for an outer ear infection. Trying to persuade her to take the strawberry flavored paracetamol! Bright side is we were able to fill her heart med prescription as we were already going to the doctor and pharmacy. So one less thing to worry about.
Builders wrote asking for more money before latest project done. Classroom teacher wrote from one of my schools saying a students been complaining about the music I assigned and questioning my methods. S late and no idea when hed be home. About to actually cry. Called my friend H about community group and told her wed try to come but things were tight and asking for lots of prayers for wisdom.
Picked up S from work and drove through McDonald's. Long talk about building work and F in bed no trouble.
Wednesday
Drove to wrong school in morning - oops.
First 2 kids absent and very glad to have time to practice and process before having to teach!
But feeling calmer after talking to simon - he always is able to talk perspective into me. And praying for grace. And felicity seems better though she didn't sleep great last night.
School bell ringing. Next!
