I really thought that this week couldn't be that much worse than last week

I was wrong. I want my money back.

4. Let's just say that this week is way up there on the

suckometer. Spent the weekend with one kid with a swollen ankle, the other with a runny nose, sore throat, and fever. Monday, my daughter stayed home due to fever, took her to the doctor. After school, took my son to the doctor, his ankle is sprained, no running for a week.

Tonight, my daughter went back into her routine of saying that she was not going to do her homework, so I'll be getting her up extra early so that she can do it in the morning. Even if she still doesn't do it, she'll be so tired that she'll wish that she had.

When we got home from my son's doctor appointment Monday afternoon, Momma Kitty was on the porch. she usually gets up as soon as I pull in, and is by my side when I open my car door. She didn't move. We walked up onto the deck, and she still didn't move. I said "Something's wrong.", and sure enough, MK is not putting any weight on her left front paw. My three cats were put in the bedroom, MK brought in for observation. I let her back out after a while, and this morning she was walking on it, but favoring it.

My husband has been out of town since Friday. While that gives me a breather, my son pushes every limit when dad is gone. It's been very exhausting.

9. Yeah, I'm just mentally fatigued

At the same time, I just can't sleep more than three or four hours at night. After the kids go to school, I'll catch a small nap.

12. It fits your name quite well

After all, you can slay during the day, unless you're following orders.
