Hay fever is no party
Yesterday was the warmest day of the year so far. With it came hay fever. Seeing as though every member of our household should live in a plastic bubble, we were all suffering. I didn't sleep a wink at all last night. It was truly insomnia. I got up out of bed at 3:30 am, after having tossed & turned for hours on end. I watched TV & listened to the birds begin their Good Morning songs...at 3:30 am. I had no clue they started that early.

I never fell asleep & the hay fever quickly turned into a sinus infection. Fever, listlessness, head aches & sinus pressure. It sucked. I felt so bad for Logan because I didn't play with him all day. I was a couch hostage, only getting up to feed him & change his diapers. He would bring books to me so I could read to him. He played & ran around the house by himself. At snack time, he though it would be funny to empty his goldfish cracker cup onto the carpet & smash every single one into little specks of orange. The TV was his babysitter today. I felt incredibly guilty about it, but what was I going to do? I couldn't stand up without getting dizzy.

I hope I feel better soon, because for one...being sick is the pits! But we have a lot of fun activities lined up this week too. We'll miss playgroup at the park tomorrow morning & I'm calling my friend to cancel our workout. I'm hoping that's all we're missing.

Allergies and sinuses are the worst. I hope you feel better soon! Don't worry about the tv baby sitter. He won't remember this one day. And it sounds as if you will more then make up for it this weekend!
