*breathes*

Page came home early from school again today with another stomach ache and slight raised temp. I really, really hope another trip to urgent care or hospital isn't in the near future. Doubt it is, though, as I suspect it's something far more insidious than a lingering infection.

Through all of this stress, I am realizing that I have SO much more energy this year than I did last year. I am able to take all of this and do what is necessary instead of sinking into the trap of "I'll do it tomorrow" like I did last year. I'm even making phone calls. By myself. Without pep-talks.

So that's something.

I am also realizing just how strong my mum was when she was going through this (only worse, and twice, with other kids to take care of both times), mostly alone, since my dad traveled for work all the time. Not that I didn't realize she was strong, just, maybe, not the degree of her strength.

But I've now faffed away a load of time, so I should go. Haven't exactly decompressed, but at least I've got a few things done. Despite the lack of strike-throughs on the to do list.

*hugs you* Your resilience is amazing. Fingers crossed for Page's health improving.

*hugs back* I think it's more pigheaded stubbornness than resilience. ;-j

He seems to be better... as long as he can do something he wants to do. *rolls eyes* It would be so much easier if he were bribeable, but he's a freaking stoic. (I swear that he was a Lama in a past life.)
