The yuck is back.

Sharky and Petunia were over whatever ickiness they had by yesterday morning, but Bear woke up last night and spent all night in the bathroom with it. He's sleeping on the couch right now, trying to catch up. I don't have it, yet, and with my state of nausea and lack o'GB issues at times, might not even realize I have it. That's irony for ya. Poor Bug had a bout of sneezing and running nose yesterday, but I think that was from all the cleaning and stirring up of dust.

The kids have been cleaning up around the house with me for the past two days and have done a really great job. We are both very proud of them. Of course, I would love it if they could accomplish stuff without fighting and arguing, but beggars can't be choosers, right?

Sharky told me yesterday morning that he was having 2nd thoughts on the vehicle his brother is coming up with. He called them last night and spoke to his SIL and she said that they'd call him back this morning, but they didn't. Turns out they might have, but we're having phone "issues" again. *sigh* Ugh, I am so tired of all this. Trying so hard to catch up but everything is always just a tiny bit out of reach.

Borrowed Mr. DL's car again, so we can check on Patches this morning and do a little bit of shopping for sundries. Won't do the food shopping until tomorrow.

My period started Wednesday night, right on schedule - 25 days now, and holding steady. Surprised me, I knew exactly the moment it started. No cramps at all this time, but I spent most of yesterday in severe back pain, like someone was sitting behind me kicking me in the kidneys as hard as they could. Couldn't find my microwave heating pad either. When Sharky got home from work, he made me take one of my very last pain pills that I had been hoarding. Wish I had thought of that hours before. *sigh* Spent most of the evening feeling like a balloon head, but at least the back pain eased down to a very dull roar.
