Battles & Blessings

Battles:

• Allergies.
• Teething.
• Growth spurt.
• Wednesday, as a whole.
• Lack of sleep, due to all of the above.
• Lack of motivation, due to lack of sleep.
• Lack of seeing friends, due to sheer busy-ness of everyone.
• Too much to do.  No real desire to do any of it.
• Monday.  Casting is stressful.  Cranky toddler is stressful.  Combined, it was, well, a battle.

Blessings:

• Claritin for kids.  Miles is now feeling a little better.
• Oranges and other soft food that don't hurt his teeth.
• Growth spurt is slowing down.
• Coffee.
• Having a completed cast list.
• Dinner with the cast on Monday night.  So much excitement!
• Dinner with Ninell on Sunday.  Delicious pasta, and delightful company.
• Television.  I hate to admit it, but when Miles is in a mood, TV helps us both keep our sanity.
• Medicine, that is helping me cope with life.
• Friends who offer help with Miles when I need it most.
• Warm weather, and cool thunderstorms.
• A chance to visit family this weekend. :)
