Whine

This is going to be a very whiny post so I understand if you don't want to read it. Today is Monday and already I can't wait for the week to be over (that is never a good sign).

This morning started out good. I did not have to be to work until 9, so Alyssa and I both took a morning nap. +2 points

I dropped her off at daycare at 8:15 and hit construction on my way out of Alton. -1 point.

I then went to the wrong location for the meeting. -1point.

Therefore I got to the meeting ten minutes late. -1 point

It was then so cold in there that I could not concentrate. -1point

This was the second time I heard the lecture so even though I could not concentrate I was able to do the activities. +1 point.

Lunch was given to us. +1 point

We got out at 3 ( an hour earlier than I get out of school). +2 points

Go pick up Alyssa and she has a rash all over her body. -2 points

Call the doctor and they tell me they can't see her and that the nurse will call me back. -0 points I guess

Go to Walgreen's to pick up her other prescription and it is not ready and their computers are down. -1 points

Doctor calls back tells me that he thinks it is a viral infection and should get better in two days. -1 point

Babysitter calls to tell me that one of the girls at daycare has been exposed to H1N1. -1 point

Chris is able to pick up prescription and dinner. +2 points

Alyssa is some what happy for the evening and goes down easily for bed. +1 point

I get all my homework done for the night. +2 points ( an extra one cause I got 14/15 on a quiz)

So if you are keeping track of points I am actually up two points for the day but it sure feels like a down day.

I know I should be grateful that Alyssa is healthy enough that Chris and I can both go to work, and that she did not have to spend any time in the hospital and that she is a beautiful loving child. But I feel that her body has to be tired. She has been sick for two months straight without a break. I know that has to take a toll on her body. I would love to pull her out of daycare for a few weeks, let her get healthy and stay healthy for a week or two and then put her back in daycare. She might not be as sick since her body would have time to heal and relax a little. But I can't do that until at least Feb, so until then I suck it up and do what I can to make her happy and comfortable.

Okay I think that is enough whine for one night and now I think I need a glass of wine. :-) and maybe a good nights sleep. Hopefully tomorrow is a +10 day.
