Stir Crazy

Ta and T.G. were both sick over the weekend. Ta started running a fever on Thursday night, and didn't get better until Saturday. T.G. started running a fever Saturday, and even vomited Saturday night. Thankfully I was able to find a substitute to teach Sunday School for us yesterday since we had to stay home.

It's been a rough few nights of sleeping. Ta has been waking and coming in our room, and if he's not quiet about it, he wakes Th, too. Last night it was the four of us all crammed together in our bed. I got so frustrated with being kicked in the belly, (Ta refused to sleep with his head on the pillow- he was sleeping the other direction) I finally got up and went in his bed. I have probably only been getting about 5 hours of sleep per night, and I woke up this morning with a killer headache. I am hoping a shower, some coffee, and some Tylenol will help.

We were supposed to go over to a friend's house this morning to play, but she had to cancel because she's been battling headaches the past couple of days. So, I'm not sure what we'll do today. As crazy as this may sound, I don't really feel like going to the pool. It is so much work to get everyone ready! Plus, we are having some friends over on Thursday to go swimming, so I am hoping the kids can wait until then. We went swimming 3 days last week, and I literally have to get everything together the night before in order to keep from losing my mind the day of because the kids get so excited.

I was thinking of going to the park, but we're going tomorrow with the MOMS Club to meet/greet potential new members. I don't want to wear off the novelty, although Th has been begging to go to one particular park in town that we have not been to since he was almost 2. Now that Ta can ride his bike by himself pretty well, I may load up the bikes and head over there so they can play and ride a bit before lunch and before the main heat of the day. We'll see how my head feels after my shower. I just know we can't stay home all day- we did that yesterday because T.G. was sick, and the kids, especially the boys, are going crazy with being home!

Have a great day!

Thursday Thirteen #4

Thirteen Things about South Carolina Mom 13 places I have been or would like to go. . . 1. Santiago, Chile, South America This was my first trip when I was in the military. It was awesome! 2. Virginia Beach, Virginia, U.S. Traveled here with the military. I had a great time, although I only stayed for a few nights. It was too cold to swim in the ocean but it was nice to see the beach. 3. Palermo, Sicily, Europe This is my family's roots. My great-grandparents immigrated to the U.S. from Palermo, and it was so awesome to be able to share in my heritage. I traveled here while in the military, and I loved every bit of this country. Mt. Etna is also located in Sicily, and on several occasions (I've been to Sicily several times), Mt. Etna was erupting. It was majestic to see, especially at night. Too many highlights to say what my favorite part of this country was, but the memories I hold will definitely last a lifetime. 4. Rota, Spain, Europe Again, traveled here with the military....

Thirteen Things about South Carolina Mom 13 jobs I have held. . . 1. Special Olympics Swim Coach Best job ever and very rewarding! 2. Preschool/Youth swim instructor My first job (I volunteered until I got hired on at the Y, then I was paid.) 3. Lifeguard This was my first paid job. 4. Crew Chief/aircraft mechanic on the KC-10 I loved it- I saw the world on this plane and pushed myself the farthest mentally and physically I ever have or ever will again. Of course I missed my family and friends, but if I had to do it all over again, I would in a heartbeat. 5. Debrief personnel I talked with aircrews after they landed about their flight/mission. I learned the logistical side of flying. 6. Tool Crib personnel I gave the mechanics tools for various jobs needed to fix the airplane. I also inventoried and ordered new tools, and that was fun. Until this job, I had no idea that tool companies have a representative drive around in a truck full of tools for people to use and try. It was during t...
