So, so tired

averygoodun42And wibbly. But first, the tired:
Hormones suck. Literally, it seems. On the verge of my period, and am just so. tired. Granted, thanks to the recent heat wave, I'm also down two nights' sleep. And fourteen daffodil blossoms. Ont he plus side, it seems the heat is what the ferns were waiting for, and a couple I had forgotten about/couldn't find have sent up fronds. I still have my doubts about a few of the ferns having survived, but it's nice to see most have.
I also have a couple more hosta poking their spikes up. One had been forgotten in a pot. Oops.
A downer that isn't related to the heat (I don't think) is that the bigger wild rose bush is going to have to go. It's infected with some sort of mildew thing that I thought I'd got rid of last summer, but I guess not. Since it's a volunteer, I don't feel all that bad about digging it up and tossing it. Especially as the smaller one is looking particularly healthy.
God I hate the heat. It's way worse than the cold. *is thankful Spring has returned*
Geoff stayed home from work yesterday. A day of rest and a couple of doses of benadryl have helped ease his symptoms enough to return to work today. Though he probably should just take the week off to get back to something with a closer resemblance to health. Too bad that's not possible, eh?
He managed to get it together enough last night for us to get to the first meeting with Page's counselor. We're agreed that she seems to be with it, and it will be good (for all of us) to work with her. (And in a quite positive note, she said we're doing everything right.)
Appointment with the pediatrician on Monday morning to discuss the whole ADHD report thing. Must be brave and ask about diabetes testing, too.
Parenting is such a shit job. And so draining. Love the kid, though. Just wish I had more energy for him.
Now to wibbling:
My term paper. Oh dear lorf, my term paper. Professor dropped a hint in class today about what needs to be in there, and, looking through what I've written, it seems I once again over-thought everything. Paper needs serious editing to get basic, basic facts in. And I'm still wibbly about statements made that relate to managerial accounting, which I haven't studied, and therefore know squat about. (About the reports they use. Again, I'm probably over-thinking everything, but... *meeps*)
I also have a 2 page paper due in business next Tuesday. And the test got put off till Friday due to professor error, so I'm curious (and a bit wibbly) about how she's going to make up the time lost. We don't have much of the semester left, and there's still three chapters to go. Granted, most of the stuff to be covered was covered in Management last semester. For me. ;-)
But anyway, end of term is upon me, and I'm exhausted and really wondering how I'm going to get through without collapsing into an inert lump at the end of it (which I can't afford to do, because there are non-school obligations coming up that need to be met, not to mention studying for my English CLEP!).
So I'm wibbling. Mostly because I want a nap, but feel I can't afford the time that takes. Even though it's far easier to think (and think well) when well rested.
Bah. Nap I shall. Page will just have to accept I (still) have homework. Poor kid.
Oh. And must look into spring camp for him. Is there one?
