Situation-induced NSD

October 13th, 2010 at 03:22 pm

The situation making this a NSD is a very sad, sick kindergartner. Temperature of 100, runny nose, pitiful little face with watery eyes. This is my palest child to begin with, and he gets white as a sheet. Anyhow, the fever came on yesterday after school, and it goes away with acetaminophine, only to reappear six to eight hours later. We were "middle of the night friends", having our own personal soiree' from about 3:30 to 5:00. He was able to go back to bed for several hours after that, me ... not so much. I am one tired mother today.

DH overslept, and was kind enough to adjust his schedule to take the 3rd grader to the public school where he receives services. Today was his first week on double the minutes, one full hour of instruction with the new young, energetic Resource Teacher. I only had to leave the house once with the sick one, to pick up the 3rd grader and take him back to school.

It's pasta and garlic bread for dinner. Tomorrow might even be a NSD-er as well, though hopefully the sickling will feel better. Off to watch his birthday movie from last week, featuring the penguins from the movie Madagascar. Should be fun.

    Have another cup of coffee and refresh the kindegardner's juice! Take care.

    I haven't slept all week - my Kinder child has a nasty cough. All I can say is that Thank Goodness that my spouse was not half deaf when we had babies. He is blissfully unaware of all the racket - just sleeps on his good ear so he can't hear anything. Which is starting to grate on me since usually he is more helpful with night duties. (Of course, dh doesn't worry as much as I, either!)

    Here's to some healthy kids and some good nights' rest!

    Ah...Penguins of Madagascar. My girls love them. Laughter heals, I've heard. Best wishes for a quick recovery.

    Took my DGS to the doc this week with a bad cough. She said it was caused from allergies and sent us home with sample meds for him. He has not run any fever and we are still going to everything. He just sounds awful!
    Hope your guy is better soon. I remember those days with my own kids.
