Almost Friday

Just a few quick random things.  Things have been hectic the last week (okay, the last three weeks). 

 Shiloh was sick again this week, so I’ve missed more work.  I took her to the doctor on Tuesday and she has an ear infection.  She’s feeling better now (still taking meds) and she’s back in preschool today. 

The doctor also prescribed Shiloh some allergy medicine.  I know my allergies have been going crazy the last few weeks, so I’m wondering if that isn’t part of the reason Shiloh has been so tired and clingy lately.  Maybe it’s not the preschool that’s the problem, maybe she just feels bad.  I’m hoping that the allergy medicine will help and she’ll be back to her old happy self again.  I don’t like giving her medicine unless she really needs it, but I know how awful allergies can make you feel. 

My allergies are seriously driving me insane this week.  I’m taking medicine for them, and it’s cleared up some of the drainage, but my eyes are still itchy and red and I’m so tired.  I hate TN this time of year.  I never had allergies until after I had Shiloh.  I don’t know if the pregnancy changed something or if it’s just because I’m getting older.  Either way they make me mad.  I used to like spring…

I’m proud of myself because even with all the craziness the last few weeks, I’ve done really well with my diet and I’ve exercised four of five times each week.  It makes me feel good to know that I can do it even when life is out of it’s normal routine.  If I can eat right and exercise with allergies and a sick toddler and when I’m getting four hours of sleep a night, I can certainly do it when things are normal again.

That’s about all I have right now. I know, really exciting. (Oh, and my mood is much better than it was Monday. Nothing has changed, but I’m feeling better.)
