Thanks, everyone, for prayers and good thoughts...I think I am mostly sagging today from lack of sleep! Had a nap this morning, and a small splash of coffee at around noon; both helped, but now I am really hitting the wall! Sinuses got better as the day went on, thank goodness!
Youngest (my sweet 9 year old) is sick...her dad says he felt swollen glands this morning, I couldn't feel any and I'm the nurse...but now Claire is convinced she has mumps...Lord save me...lol! She can be a bit of a worry-wart when she is sick. I am trying to humor and reassure at the same time...and I'd like to kick her dad in the kiester for suggesting it might be mumps (she's been vaccinated). She does have a fever and is pale, climbed into her bed this afternoon and slept for over an hour. Doesn't want to eat much; I keep after her to get her to at least drink water or juice. My little invalid
Eldest (11) was very sweet at lunchtime and made her sister a bread and butter fold-over and even CUT THE CRUSTS OFF (which I won't do). Wow. She needs an extra hug and praise for that, I want to encourage those kind gestures as much as possible!
Did a little bit of sewing, made a little giftie something. Seems it needs some embellishing, looks a bit blah...maybe some yo-yo's? That could work...I'll look at it later and give it some thought.
