Busy

It’s been a busy week. This time last Thursday we were bundling Hambet into the car and heading off to the emergency room — he was sliding off his booster chair and smacked his head against the edge of the counter (very close to where he hit his head back in January). This time it was more serious and he ended up getting five stitches. They are out now; the wound is healing well but he still has green bruising on the side of his face.
Last Friday I woke up with one of those horrible colds that makes you feel like death even though clinically you aren’t that sick. I’ve been keeping myself going with Sudafed this week, and today I’m finally feeling better and enjoying the energy surge. Meanwhile, poor dh has been suffering with seasonal allergies, and we learned at the ER that Hambet has them too. We’ve gone through a lot of Kleenex this week and have mostly been stumbling around croaking at each other.
But today I’ve been rolling. My husband was grunting with displeasure this morning because the refrigerator was so empty, so I took the opportunity to clean it out this morning. I could just stand there with the door open gazing with pleasure at my nice clean fridge. My husband was not terribly impressed with the sparkling fridge, but he did seem to appreciate that I went out and brought back something to put in it.
Now I am preparing for tomorrow’s big project: painting Hambet’s room (Behr “Geyser” with white ceiling and trim.) So off to prep the room.
Oh, and I’ve started my *shudder* Christmas shopping.
