crappy day

My cough is burying itself deep in my chest, and I am sure I am gonna cough up a lung any minute now.

Two of my boys were running temps last night, Caleb vomited, and Noah was very feverish (he has a history of febrile convulsions, so I am super-paranoid about watching him) - they slept in the loungeroom, next to our room so I could hear them, and for comfort. Noah kept crying out all night from the fever, so I am zapped today. Noah threw up this morning, fortunately before Ray left for work, so he dealt with the clean-up. Caleb now has diarrhea - ick ick ick.

And how come most weeks go by with not a single phonecall, and on the day you least want to deal with it, the phone doesn't stop? My Aunt has phoned twice, cos she wanted ideas for xmas shopping at the kmart toy sale for our kids, but I could hardly talk to her in between coughing fits. I have had TWO charities phone looking for donations or selling raffle tickets, and just had someone on the phone trying to sell me another phone company, and I couldn't get through to him that I don't want to change anything, I had to tell his manager that I didn't want any more phone calls from their company!

SHEESH!!

But it can only get better from here, right? Noah is asleep on the couch, and Caleb says he is hungry, so hopefully it is only a 24 hour thing, so long as the others don't get it. Keeping my fingers crossed.
