12/28/10 – Sick Day

Today was a sick day for me! No fun. I woke up early in the morning to a slight headache. Went back to sleep, then woke up at my usual time to a full blown migraine! Ugh. It was horrible. I took some Tylenol and then sat there, feeding Amelia with an ice pack on my head. Needless to say, I called into work. Christian took the girls to his parents’ house and I stayed in bed for a few more glorious hours. It felt so nice to get some rest, some actual sleep, and I felt so much better once I got up. I had a little trace of it all day long, but could at least function the rest of the day.

I ended up taking down all of the Christmas decorations, including the lovely tree. Olivia was NOT happy to find out the tree was gone when she got home! At least taking the decorations down goes much quicker than putting it up! In the midst of that, I got some “sorting” done and a few loads of laundry. SO much to do before the big party on Sunday!

Christian and the girls got home…Olivia immediately destroyed all of my organizing and picking up by pulling out each and every toy…again….and scattering the pieces all over…again. Endless cycle! We ate some dinner and settled in to watch some Tuesday Night Football. For the third week in a row, some horrible change happened involving the Vikings game…they were supposed to play in Philadelphia on Sunday, but they were in the middle of the storm we had a week earlier, so the game was postponed to tonight. I was pretty worried about this game (especially because we’re down to our 3rd string quarterback now!), but they actually pulled off a pretty good win! YAY. One more game left, and our season is over. I hate when football season is over….

Here is Olivia, sneaking a cookie!
