What a ROTTEN, HORRIBLE, LONG week this has been. It’s been too cold and nasty to go anywhere and the child and I are both sick.

I have a very leaky right nostril, which makes it very hard to do anything without dripping snot everywhere.

I have to get my rest in advance knowing that the child will most likely have a bad night.

I have a lot of cleaning up around my house to do but I DON’T FEEL LIKE DOING IT.

We have quite possibly played with every single toy in our house this week and today, I finally raised the white flag. I just came out and said, “Look, I know you’re bored. I’m bored too but we’re too sick and miserable to go out and do anything.”

I’ve reached my breaking point. I WANT WINTER TO END…NOW!
