Sickness

Well, the night before Thanksgiving, Nathanael threw up; but then he was fine. For the past two nights, he's been waking up in the middle of the night - a lot. Then last night Taliesin threw up in the middle of the night. Today he's not feeling very well. He's spent the day lounging on the couch in the family room, not wanting to eat because his tummy hurts and all the rest that goes along with a tummy ache that I will spare you the details of. A couple of the girls at work said they would work for me tonight, so I'm glad of that. At least I can stay home and watch him. He's definitely not himself, not playing or eating. But he is sipping at ginger ale, so that's good. I'm wondering if Nathanael is getting an ear infection. Usually when he keeps waking up at night, that is what it means. I know my ear has been hurting pretty badly for the past few days. I don't want to make an unnecessary trip to the doctor (I still owe them $30.00 from my last visit with my foot), so I am just taking some antibiotic that I never finished from when I hurt my foot. If Nathanael keeps up with the sleeplessness and antsy-ness, I'll probably take him in on Monday.

I'm sorry you're sick. There is just so much going around this time of year. (I say it's because all of the kids are couped up in a room with each other in schools). Taliesin is better today. He was starting to feel a little better yesterday. Nathanael is starting to get a cough. I sense a cold coming on. :^(
