I am sick…
Last week Colin and Khéna were sick and Khéna is still coughing in a way that makes him throw up a few times a day, especially when he lays down. I felt bad on Sunday and then felt better on Monday… enough to go out on Monday to a friends house with the boys…
Then, right on the way back home…. it hit me…
I feel miserable. My throat feels like it is going to swell shut and it is so painful to swallow that I flinch each time. It is Wednesday morning and I have felt like this since Monday night…
It is SO hard to be a mom when you are sick… I can’t really relax and take care of myself and the more that I try the more the boys need my attention.
Of course, being sick can’t be enough…
Now the dryer broke… We are biting the bullet and buying a new one… it should be here on Friday but until then we can’t do much laundry and I am at the end of the cloth diapers…
It has been raining for two days so line drying hasn’t been an option… (I think that we are going to get a sunny break today though)

I feel for you on that illness…
I have had the coughing/major chest congestion thing for almost a month now… My 9 y.o. has had a milder version of it for a few days… Thankfully he doesn’t get as sick with things as I do…
Hope you get some sun today, and can hang out the wash… Nothing like clothes dried in the sun… Of course, there is nothing like getting to use a new dryer for the first time, either! lol
