tricky

this whole "recovery week" is tricky business. you know, there's a difference between feeling sick and feeling worn down and physically exhausted.

both are bad, but i'd pick exhausted over sick any day.

so last week i was sick. painfully and obviously sick. and this week i'm worn down. but i just can't keep from getting out of this house, because i'm sick of this house.

in fact, this sickness has made me want to move. like i'm blaming the house or something.

i'm not gonna lie. i left the house both wednesday and thursday morning. (i just had to) and both wednesday and thursday afternoon my fever was back. nice.

so i cancelled some plans for this morning. hoping to keep the fever away ALL DAY this time.

i do feel better. A LOT better...really. that's why recovery week is so tricky, ya know?

especially when you have kiddos who have things like soccer practice



and especially when you have kiddos who missed things like soccer practice last week because their mom was a sicko.




and especially when you have kiddos who have friends named jack who are going to come with you to soccer practice.




(jack has some serious photog skills....he took these last two)




you just have to keep living life you know? exhausted or not.

(i promise that i will go to the doctor on monday if this fever keeps making itself known....promise)
