best intentions

I did pretty well today, even though I slept till 9:30.

I cleaned all four bathrooms, which just about wiped me out.
I also did four loads of laundry, and the first 3 are already folded; the first 2 are already put away.

I didn't go shopping today as I had intended, but it's raining and I'm feeling a bit punky, so I put it off. My throat has that junky feeling again today, and even my incision is a bit sore. Weird.

DD's got strep for sure. Her rash had spread to her face this morning, so DH took her to urgent care, and they did the rapid strep and confirmed it. Apparently the rash reaction is uncommon, as the doctor kept commenting on it to DH, and even mentioned it to the pharmacist, who had to call to clarify something on the prescription he wrote. At any rate, DD doesn't feel ill at all. Every time she swoops over to give me a kiss I feel like putting up a crucifix like I am repelling a vampire... she doesn't realize how contagious she is, and she is still very affectionate with me.

When I got out of the shower I saw some redness on my chest but DH says it's not like DD's rash. I am not so sure. Grrrrrr. My throat is killing me. At least I'm only blowing my nose once or twice an hour, as opposed to 9 or 10 times an hour.

I meant to come down after my shower and fold the last load of laundry and go to bed. But when I came down the family room smelled of cat poop, and indeed, little Miss Grinchy Claws had made her opinion of the Christmas-ing up of the family room known. The corner which houses the tree usually houses the blue rocking chair I used constantly when the kids were infants; it was perfect for nursing. Now it is mostly the cat's chair, and she is ticked that we moved it across the family room and put the tree in its place. So she pooped behind the chair, which is of course on the carpet, and it probably took me a good 15-20 minutes to clean it up. AAAUGGGGHHHHH!

Still, though, I'll go fold the clothes now that I'm a bit more collected, and I'll still get to bed at a decent hour. Have to take DS1 to school tomorrow, and about a million other things, as well...
