list

I have a cheerful child with a slight temperature who will be staying home from school.
I have a whiny child who I wish had a slight temperature so I could send her to bed.
I have a baby with a cold.

My son seems to be the only one without a malady of some sort, though he just turned two and so his reactions throughout the day are not expected to be measured.

I, myself, and a little tired (par for the course of motherhood). I have a to-do list to focus on. I shall not be derailed! Do you hear me, forces of the universe! Yeah. Well. It's not a very long list. And at the moment I have no plans to add to it.

No. 1 on my list: administer the Children's Tylenol. And off I go.....!

  3. One day years ago when you were little I was frustrated about not checking off anything on my to-do list. So, I made a new list of everything I had done that day and checked them all off. It was quite exhilarating!
