Day 29

Today is Monday which means our Nanny Abby comes as its a work day for me. I woke up pretty awful today as did Edi-Rae so I booked us a doctors appointment to get a checkup. I had planned to have a big day of content filming so I had to post-pone a few jobs and many other book keeping type things on my checklist. I’m a bit behind from having a lot of last week off so I can feel myself stressing knowing the kids and I aren’t well. I had planned to catch up on everything today and this week but now I’m to sure what the week is going to look like. I also have a botox appointment booked in for Wednesday and I really don’t want to have to cancel it because I look like a sleep deprived corpse and I really need that to change 😂

 

Both kids wet through to their sleeping bags last night so before we went to the doctors I popped in to Baby Bunting to get a them another sleep suit each as I can’t seem to stay on top of the washing so we need backup. I reckon I have spent at least 2K on these things for both kids they are so expensive. WHY IS EVERYTHING SO EXPENSIVE?! I did a top up grocery shop today and it was $200!! WTF. I did one yesterday which was also $200. After spending most of my wage we went to the doctors to spend another $90 (get $40 back but) to get checked out.

 

He wasn’t too worried about Edi-Rae, he said just Panadol and Nurofen because her throat is red which is why she is most likely so unsettled. As for me I have another course of antibiotics and also some steroids for this bout of tonsillitis. The pain is so bad today, it’s making my ear so sore and I’m struggling to swallow (that somehow isn’t stopping me from eating though). He resent my referral to the ENT because this is the 4th lot of tonsillitis I’ve had on 4 months. I called the ENT and they got me in on November 20 so I’ll be interested to see what they say. I really hope there is an easy fix because I have heard having tonsils out as an adult is pretty fucked so I’m not sure how I would do that while parenting.

 

Nick and I had a bit of a fight tonight before bed which sucked but he is now sleeping in the other room which I’m happy about because it means I get a little holiday away from the snoring. We are fine now, but you know how it is sometimes when everyone is sick, stressed & tired. We also left our bickering from last night unresolved which didn’t help. It is SO important to resolve every fight and feeling in the household otherwise it just turns toxic. We decided to book in a time to chat properly this week out of the house so we can both just chat about how we’re feeling as we can both feel some resentment at the moment so that needs to get sorted.
