No tree again today. I awoke at 1:00 a.m. with bad stomach cramps and nausea. After spending an hour in total pain, I somehow managed to fall asleep again. I was probably up every hour after that until 7:00a.m. Needless to say, I called in sick at work. I was able to get my son up and off to school on time. He's getting so handsome. He's going to be one hell of a heartbreaker. (Actually, I'll kick his butt if he breaks many hearts). I thought I'd spend the day on the sofa, maybe watching some TV. But no, I got all comfy in bed ... expecting to do some reading and maybe some writing. Did that happen? No it did not. I found myself 2 hours later waking up from a nap. This is something I don't really care to do during the day unless I'm just wiped out completely. I rarely wake up feeling any better when I do snooze during the day. I usually feel even more tired and almost always wake up with a headache. Think I learned my lesson though? Of course not. An hour later ... I was off napping again. And I awoke 30 minutes ago with this god awful headache and a touch of fever. I'm going to enjoy these next couple of hours while I can. Kids will be home then - no - more - silence. Time to make a phone call and see why this phone line I ordered hasn't been done yet. I'll ring someone's neck if I keep getting the run-around.
