I think I picked it up yesterday. I *had* to drag Calix out into the cold and pouring rain. He was bundled up nicely..I..wasn't so much turns out. I was wet and cold and miserable and carried my child tucked under my sweater as I ran to get inside. Umbrella? What? So totally not something I even thought about grabbing before leaving..not that it would have mattered much, I'm sure. Anyway..yeah..had to run to Walfreakingmart to get some milk for him because ya know..I was trying and trying to wait for the rain to stop before we headed out to get more but it was just that time for milk and gosh dangit..it's raining.
He seems nice and perky and healthy..I'm not so much. It's just a basic head cold..but geeze, I so can't deal with one right now. I want to go take a hot bath (yeah..I only wish I could take one of those without needing someone help me out of it..because hello? I just feel so mighty lately) and drink tea..and curl up in bed with a book. Can't. Nope. Instead I'm trying to arrange furniture in the living room so that the lamp is behind the couch..and I know how ugly that looks but if it's the ONLY thing that keeps my darling child away from tapping the crap out of it and trying to pull it down..so freaking be it. I'm tired..so tired of the same things I was tired about a couple of days ago..only now, I'm trying to blow my nose and then go wash my hands while keeping him in line and OFF THE STAIRS!!! I can barely even see straight..it's that headachy foggy..teary crap that I'm so not into.
Dear Calix,
Someday you'll be older and know exactly how your mother feels. And so help me God, I'll make your life while sick with a cold as hellish as you LOVE to make mine.
Smooches!
-Mommy
I know, you can't be mad at that, can you?
