after these last few weeks of ky's migraines and dizziness, i've hardly slept more than 4/5hrs most nites. coupled with kay's fever and puking, i hv been feeling decidely frazzled by the time they finally konk each nite/morning.
last nite i thot i wd go crazy if it went on just 1 more nite!
it didnt!
so i know there's a God who thought i wasnt yet ready to go over the edge! :>
i slept ard 3am or later yesterday becos of kynan's issues. then at ard 4am, kay walked over to my room spewing puke here, there and everywhere... her fever was sky-high. so after cleaning up (her and e floor), and getting some meds down her, i crashed.
at ard 5+ i was up for some reason... i cant rem if it was one of e kids that woke me or what?... to zonked i guess. anyhow, i used the opportunity to instruct dh to pls drop by at lunchtime n take ky to school/ or call up his mum to help... as kay wd be too sick to walk. he told me to sms him later. i told him i'd be asleep! and that's exactly wot i did! i went straight back to bed~
kay was not too well e whole day. she took an hr to eat half a piece of bread in the morning. another hour to *not* eat any rice at lunchtime. 30 min to eat 3 teaspoons of yoghurt in the afternoon. :) e rest of her time was spent listening to stories, watching tv, doing online puzzles etc...and she even requested to do 'schoolwork' in the afternoon cos she was 'terribly bored'. :b
my free moments were not idled away.... i spent e time vacuming n mopping e house, doing lots of laundry, shifting a mattress up to e loft bed, and changing bedlinens. it was a very fruitful day. i was expecting the worst for e nite, so shifted ky back to kay's room, so i cd deal with them both in 1 place. it worked!
for e 1st time in weeks, ky actually slept without much incident. :)))))) Praise the Lord!!!!!!
so i managed to eat some dinner and take a bath... 2 things i've barely bn able to do in weeks! i even washed some laundry, folded 4loads of clothes (that is a sofa-full, ie piled high and overflowing ;)) , and i deep-cleaned a bathroom.
now i've had 3hrs of peace in my home tonight....no screaming, no crying, no begging in pain or desperation.
thank you thank you thank you Lord!
