Writing about all the big & little things

Starting to take a toll…

Chloe is still coughing.  She’s halfway through her medicine now and they said if she wasn’t making progress by the time she finished it we would have to go back in for chest x-rays.  And as of right now, it’s not looking much better than when we started.  She’s sleeping poorly at night, which is making us sleep poorly, and it’s starting to take a toll on me and my attitude.  I can especially feel it today… However, I really shouldn’t complain too much because it’s been Tim that sits in her room with her for most of it–of which I am VERY grateful.  🙂

But today I feel drained.

And wouldn’t you know that today would be when Chloe would decide to get up early… so we came downstairs and snuggled up on the couch and I let her watch Thomas and Friends while I tried to doze a little more.  It didn’t work, however, because I put on an episode that I had never seen and I was curious what was happening, so I kept opening my eyes.  I guess my plan backfired…

But today is Thursday, which means tomorrow is Friday already!  This weekend we have worship team practice, a housewarming party to attend and I’m planning to do my prep-work for judging.  It’s going to be a riveting weekend.  Okay, maybe not, but the party should be fun.

    Sorry Chloe isn’t getting better. I can totally empathize with you because that was the problem we had with Kylene when she was little. And I couldn’t sleep through coughing either. I’d move downstairs and cover my head with a pillow, but I could still hear her. But Kylene didn’t wake up – she just coughed and slept away.
