My sickest day yet, Tristyn’s better

This has got to be the hardest day yet for me and whatever this is that I have. My body aches are terrible and I’m coughing and I’m breathing fast. I’ve got really bad brain fog and no focus. Moving hurts. I’ve had to get everything ready for the week, however, because Moms still have to do their job even when ill. I think that’s why I’m not getting better. I haven’t had any resting time and I’ve been taking care of everyone else instead of myself. I just made myself a cup of tea to sip. I think someone warm in my throat might soothe it a bit.

Tristyn’s fever broke last night around 1:30 am, the antibiotic finally started doing its job. I had both kids in my bed with me so I didn’t get sleep at all with the whole foot and a half of space that I was trying to sleep on while having Molly dog and Tommy cat between my legs. I’m so happy Tristyn’s better but I don’t think he’s in any shape to go to school tomorrow. I’m going to keep him home so he can rest up and start eating to gain his strength back. I got a text from his school today saying that he’d been selected by one of the staff members to receive a Golden Paw Pat award for the first trimester. Only 5 kids are picked for that so I’m extremely happy for him. I’ll be going to the award ceremony on Friday to watch him.

I’ve got a lot of medical phone calls to make tomorrow that I’d been putting off and time has run out to stall. I have to make these phone calls no matter what. I have a ton of laundry to do too. I need to finish washing the clothes and get the beds stripped and washed too. I’m ready to wash all this sickness out of this house.

I just got both kids to bed and I have to go work on my #100DaysOfCode before it gets too late or one of the kids wakes up.
