Cough, cough, ugh

So yea, I managed to avoid the family illness for over a month and a half. It all started Thursday with an itchy throat, then a froggy voice Monday, then an even froggier voice Sat. Then just total ugh on Sunday. Well I feel better, but now I have a cough! And it's not the cough that actually does something. Nope, this is a cough that is just annoying. Ah well.

In other news, Mat is asking to go to Kindergarden...He's only three! I wish he'd be this little forever (well most days I do, other days I just think to myself...and I want another one why?...today was one of those days, lol)

Today was interesting...Mat woke up ready to play at 4:30, why I have no idea. I was not feeling well, so Scott took over. I kept waking up throughout the hour Scott was trying to ease Mat back to sleep. I finally caved and helped Scott out, and said "Mat, Mommy doesn't feel well, go to sleep..." And he did, but only for about 2 hours. Scott and I got woken up around 7ish by his Dad, who called Scott to have him help track a buck he shot with his bow. This ended up being a task that would take an hour, to one that took the entire day. With, um, no luck. Well, the brother in law, did find a dead deer, be it one that was dead for a few days though...ew, gross. So after Scott left to track the deer, I was left with the beast...5 minutes of rest past, when all of a sudden 'I AM HUNGRY MOMMY!' Ugh, I tried telling him Mommy didn't feel good, and she wanted to sleep, but he was not having that. 'I WANT PANCAKES!' So I finally got out of bed, we managed to compromise on muffins. The muffins pleased the beast, but only for a bit. I was drained of energy due to being sick, and I just wanted to lay down and watch tv...but 'I WANT TO PLAY TOM AND JERRY! TOM, YOU NEED TO CHASE ME!' rang through my ears. I finally got him playing one of his interactive tech games. Then I went out to the in laws for lunch.

So yea, I'm going to bed early...hopefully I am good enough to get to work tomorrow. I have one sick day left, I'm saving it. Well, trying to. Wish me luck!
