I decided that Keisha Nicole needed another day of rest so JT stayed home with her today. She slept more than half of the day and didn’t eat many solids nor drink much fluid. On a positive note, she did go through a full twenty-four hours without another fever. We were thankful for that. I called home to check on my two loves throughout the day and from what JT described, Keisha Nicole really missed the company of her brother. Of course after arriving home, I made sure to love up the twins, a little bit more than normal. They both are still trying to get over their colds and we all know that babies and some adults…*cough can get needy when they are ill.

With children under age two, most over-the-counter medicines for colds are useless. But as a parent we still want to relieve the symptoms that are children have; sneezing, coughing, runny nose, etc. For mothers like myself who say that we just have to try out something we have Children’s Tylenol Cold and Sudafed. The Tylenol Cold actually seemed to help relieve William’s decongestion but not get rid of it totally. Inevitably the cold still has to run its course. The Sudafed has helped Keisha’s runny nose but not the cough. Bleh.

The twins will be fifteen months old next week so that means another wellness visit with their pediatrician. I also need to make a follow-up visit for William with his ENT. William snores extremely loud. One of his specialists thinks that it may be his adenoids. I just hope that it is something that can be fixed with as little pain as possible.

I found out via email that an important meeting is scheduled at work next Monday. I’m nervous but I think it will go well. I don’t think that everything will be resolved that day but I do think it will be quite a learning experience. Because of the powers that be, I cannot go into details and I don’t want to be a victim of those fired because of discussing work on her blog. Phooey.

Last week was meant to be smooth at work. A full week of training and getting off a full two hours earlier than normal. Well, that was all good until Friday evening when I waited for the bus. I waited then waited and waited some more. Thirty minutes passed and I decided to call Metro to find out what was going on. The gentleman placed me on hold for a long while then came back to tell me that my bus broke down. I was furious. Despite the extra layer of clothing I was beginning to shiver as the wind whipped through my skin. After a total of seventy-five mintues, my bus arrived.

Yeah if I had some money, I would have my own car.
