Bored

I am so f-ing tired of being sick!!!!!  Today started out bright and early (5:30) because our son woke up and I had promised my husband he could sleep in.  So I went downstairs and set up Netflix and went back to bed.  Around 6:30, my son asked for breakfast and I told him I'd be right down.  At 7, he wondered where his breakfast was.  I had fallen back asleep  (oops!).  At this point, the Wii had frozen, and I had to fix it, so there was no going back to sleep for me.  After a few episodes of Phinneas & Ferb, we played a game of Sorry!  At this point, my son couldn't wait any more.  He wanted Daddy, and as it was after 9, I told him it was ok to see if he was up, which is code for "go ahead and wake him up".

They ended up going to the waterpark today.  I always take him to the waterpark!  This is the first time he's gone with his father.  But I knew there was no way I'd be able to do it.  Instead, I went to Costco, came home and napped for about an hour, then decided as I hadn't eaten yet today, I probably should have something.  I ate a little, and then decided to wash all the dishes as neither of us did them yesterday, and the sink was full.  Washing the dishes did me in, and I laid in bed for about 2 hours.  I was so tired, but I couldn't sleep any more, so I read a bit.  Then I put clean sheets on my son's bed, and that was it.  I was wiped out.  I still had to make dinner, but that wasn't too hard.  I promised steak to my husband, so I made steak for us and beans for our son.  I also cut up some red potatoes and grilled them in a foil pouch.  They came out great.

Unfortunately, along with being bored and tired all day, I also have had a lot of D.  Nasty D, to be exact.  And my butt hurts.  The bad thing is that I had the D even before I ate anything, and it hasn't gotten any better or worse since I've eaten.  I am out of pain meds, so tomorrow I am going to have to call my doctor and ask for some.  I've been trying to avoid taking it, but yesterday and today have been unbearable.  And my cold still hasn't gotten any better.

Oh, yesterday.  That was another boring day.  I didn't leave the house.  I started off the day by taking pain meds, and every six hours I needed more.  I usually don't feel too bad in the morning, but yesterday was a special treat, I guess.  I can't imagine going back to work unless something changes dramatically.  My husband and son got back from their overnight at the zoo, and I was happy to hear about how much fun they had.  My son read me a great story called A Fish Out of Water and did a homework page that he had to write some sentences about rain.  He complained about it, but then was so happy he could do it.  Then last night, his favorite characters would be on TV.  He absolutely loves Phinneas & Ferb.  We don't have cable, but the movie that had been on the Disney Channel only a couple of weeks ago was the ABC Saturday Night Movie, so we let him stay up and watch it.  He was so excited.

Tomorrow I am home with my son for the morning while my husband goes to work.  I hope I feel ok.  He starts school in one week, which just confirms that I missed his whole summer being sick.
