We received about a foot of snow overnight, so I was also dreading looking and then needing to shovel it. So, luckily, two men came by, offering to shovel for me, and I jumped on that quickly.
Both kids are also under the weather, Jonathan far less so but Elise really. She's got a wet cough and a really gross, runny nose. I've been kind of concerned about it too. He's just got a boogery nose. Then I called our family dr about Elise; she decided we needed to come in. Turns out, she's got a double ear infection and fluid in her lungs and needs to be on antibiotics 3x/day for 10 days!! As the day wore on, she got progressively more miserable. She had pureed peaches for dinner and went to bed by 5:30. Can't wait to see what time she's up tomorrow.
I feel like garbage: not physically ill, but emotionally drained, frazzled, worn out. I feel guilty for it, but I know it's normal. I have had zero time to myself, and the daily routine is much harder with 1-2 sick kids w/o being able to go outside b/c it's too cold/windy. not the best of days.

Hmmm. The note about 2 men coming by to plow your driveway reminds me of a day in Sohren when you went looking for a man to help me fix the flat tire on our very heavy BMW. By the time you found a willing man I had it changed...at least that's how I remember it.
I hope you all feel better soon.
