Cabin Fever

You know you need a break from motherhood when you are looking forward to a morning at the hospital getting an endo/colonoscopy. Lying in the bed with an IV in my arm, I smiled at the quietness of it all. Once the sedatives kicked in, I didn't remember a thing. Ahhh, I finally got the nap I have been fantasizing about!

Between the plague-like illness we endured and the laughable amounts of snow we have been getting, we have barely left the house in 2 weeks. I am contemplating a trip to the grocery store, simply for some adult company.

I swear the fever Sprout had for five days fried her brain and threw her into a regressive state. She has backtracked to shouting at me, being ultra picky about what she eats, and assumed a generally ornery disposition. Hmmmm maybe she is reflecting back what she is getting from me.

These 2 weeks have been the ultimate test in patience. I find myself snapping on a daily basis...breathe! I think I see a light at the end of the tunnel...oh yeah it is supposed to snow again next week. Maybe instead of the grocery store I will venture out to the liquor store instead.
