1:30 p.m.
It is 1:30 p.m. and I am ready for one of two things - a stiff drink or some chocolate.
J is out of town for a few days on business, which I'm cool with, but apparently that's a signal for things to get a bit hairy! I just spoke to him very briefly last night and it sounded like his trip was already not going so smoothly. At that time we both agreed that we could adjust to whatever needed to happen regarding this schedule. So, I'm not really sure when he is coming home now.
When Jeremiah woke up this morning, he had gunk in his eye. I should have known then what it was but after I cleaned him up, his eye didn't look too bad. Several hours later, I've made a trip to Convenient Care and have eye drops to treat his pink eye, which is contagious for 24 hours. Joy! He's napping now but I feel so bad for him because he looks rough. He was a real trooper while I put the drops in his eyes before nap.
I'm really tempted to chalk up the whole day to sick time and take a nap, but I know that I will also need 4 hours of sick time tomorrow because he really isn't supposed to go back to daycare until tomorrow afternoon. argh.
1:47 - I have now polished off some left-over M&Ms from my cousin's wedding treats. I will need to take a long brisk walk with Jer later to work those off, especially since they were on the heals of McDonald's for lunch. I hate stress eating!
I better do some work.
On a bright note - my mom, God BLESS her, has offered to drive down if I need help if John doesn't make it home when he was originally scheduled! I don't think I will need that but I LOVE that she offered.

Keep it all in perspective, sweetie. These are relatively small potatoes compared to some people. I just heard about a young couple who are in a burn unit recovering from a plane crash. We are blessed. This too shall pass! :) XOXO, Claire

PS, I think I have eaten twenty pounds of Snickers this month and it's only the 10th. Okay, maybe that's not true...but I have some out for open houses and I seem to eat one every time I walk by the bowl. Tsk tsk! :)
