Monday - Tyler is still running fever and now his throat looks really bad. We go to the doctor and he has strep. Here's all the things that go through my mind.
1. Poor Kid - His throat hurts so bad.
2. I'm going to miss more work - I missed 2 days last week with Olivia.
3. This is going to keep me off schedule and hinder my good eating habits.
4. He is so contagious!! I'm so worried the rest of us are going to get it!
5. Are we ever going to get any sleep again?
Then at the doctor's office - The doctor tells us that Tyler probably can't eat much with his throat as swollen as it is. But she did recommend ice cream, yogurt or anything cold. All the unhealthy things we were trying to avoid. So what did I do? I took Tyler to the store and let him pick out whatever ice cream(s) he wanted. Here's what we came home with...
I know...that's way too much ice cream. It will be in our freezer to tempt us the next few weeks. Why did I let him get so much?
Monday was quite the day. But let me add a few more issues I dealt with. First, at my workout-my 1st-I'm not sick anymore-beginning of the year-workout with my trainer...I couldn't finish my workout because I felt like I was going to pass out and throw up! I guess my allergies or whatever I have are not gone. My head was spinning. I was so excited to get back to my routine--working out and eating right. Only to be delayed again.
Then...are you ready for this... My husband is now ready...Ready to eat right and get healthy. What?
Today? Are you kidding me? I've wanted him to do this with me for the past year. I knew not to push him. I knew that on his time he would eventually get there. I just didn't expect it to be today. The day I am falling apart.
