oh whatta day!

now that i've finished today and am shortly seeing myself off to bed it is 273 days until i finish working. now i didn't count for the excitement factor, like the two years before my 18th when i started the countdown, it was done because the kids yesterday asked if i was goin home in june and i was like, you want to get rid of me, you can't hide it, so for fun we counted how long it would be til i leave. it was all in good humour and the kids weren't being malicious. actually the past two days have been pretty good. the different tactic worked with alex yesterday and she didn't come home this arvo because she had girl scouts so i'll see how it goes tomorrow. i'm glad i only had emily and matthew today because i was under the weather. i woke up at 4:30am with what felt like one of the worst migraines i'd had for many years and i thought i was going to vomit but had no energy to get out of bed. i couldn't take a mersyndol because it would knock me out for 8 hours and i had to start work at 8am so i downed three nurofen plus, used a helluva lot of migrastick and tried to sleep. i was so exhausted when i woke up i was so thankful that i had between 11 and 2 off today because i slept for two hours of that to try and get myself better. now i feel a bit better but i couldn't do much with em today because my head is still touchy and my energy is non-existant. so she noticed that and was pretty whingy which didn't help things!
the weekend was alright. it was that miserable melbourne weather, when the day is grey and it's just raining, not heavily but that constant rain, heavier than drizzle. i love those days. so on the sunday arvo i had to get out of the house because greg and his mum were here and she made a few comments about the time i woke up which i got defensive about so i called some girls and ended up going to kellie's to watch a dvd and hang out there with her host mum's parents. kellie is so a part of the family. anyway, point of the story, kellie looks after a 3 and a half month old and sunday night i was positive i wanted kids again. i got rid of her hiccups! how special am i? yeah i was pretty chuffed about that! so kids are back on the agenda. even matthew has been super nice to me today. obviously they don't think i'm the evil monster i sometimes feel like i am!
i can't believe it's may!
