I battled another sinus infection this week. The two recent infections are the first in several years. When I taught in Naperville, I had several sinus infections over a the course of 2-3 years. This one is worse than the one over Christmas. Both of my ears have fluid in them in addition to crushing sinus pain. I can tolerate not hearing well, but the pressure in my face is almost unbearable. I spent a lot of time on the couch or in bed the last three days. I have been absolutely exhausted. The pain started Sunday, but the earliest I could get to the doctor was Wednesday. On the upside, I received my next book to review on Tuesday evening. With all my couch time, I am more than halfway through it. I have made no progress on any quilting or sock monkey making. I hope to work on a sock monkey tomorrow. I also have a dog date and a baby shower to attend, so sewing may not happen.
My husband plans to till the garden tomorrow while I am at the shower. I wish we had planted about 3 weeks ago, but with me not feeling well, I haven't been much help. We also plan to visit my sweet friend Marcy who recently got a new puppy. The kids are so excited about getting to play with a dog. I would love a dog. I haven't decided what kind to get that would best suit our family. I want something smallish, tolerant of children, non-shedding. Does that dog exist? We'll see how Missy handles the kids and how the kids handle Missy. The earliest we might get a dog would be next year.
My two seconds of peace are over. Time to get the kids into the bed.
