Zoe is sick today. I went into her room to wake her up this morning and she was practically in tears. She was wide-eyed and fearful. She said her throat hurt so much that it kept waking her up in the night.
So I set her up on the couch with lozenges, a pile of books, a blanket and her panda bear. She asked for chicken noodle soup for breakfast. I've closed some curtains to darken the room, so that she have a better chance of falling back to sleep.
I'm not sure what I'll do today. I still have 50 pages left on the 500 page book on Narcissistic Personality Disorder that I am reading. Mostly I'll just be hovering.

Poor Z! I hope she feels better soon. Of course, there's nothing quite like a little pampering from Mommy every now and then... :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Miakoda
ReplyDeleteWe have our sick day rituals of lying about on the couch, watching movies, eating chicken noodle soup, saltines and ice cream. :)
I remember the sick day rituals. Sherri and I both always got served 7-Up when we got sick. I still love it but she associates it with illness. I suspect that's because I was a malingering child.
ReplyDeleteI got 7-Up and Saltines. I guess the bubbles and the sugar were supposed to settle upset tummies.
ReplyDeleteI hope it is not strep and that she is better soon.
ReplyDeleteHi Mariposa
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't look like strep. Thank goodness. She hasn't had strep yet.
