Sick Day
Just kidding. I don’t get sick days. I am on call for the boys 24/7 regardless of whether I’m feeling lousy. I got some extra sleep but my mouth is still cooked and my nose is still running. I am not in good health today. Hopefully I can get some more sleep tonight and wake…

My Valentine 26
Stephanie let me sleep today. I have only been awake for three hours and it’s already time to blog. Not much has happened yet. I didn’t get her a Valentine’s Day present. Perhaps I should do better.

No New Snow
Today has been a quiet day in the house. Stephanie allowed me to sleep in except for the times that Ben did not. My extended family is dealing with city crippling snow storms. Today it didn’t snow here. The gratitude is real.

Sleep eludes me
I got intoxicated. It’s my own fault but that was twelve hours ago. I thought I’d be asleep by now. We have an appointment with a plumbing technician this afternoon. I need to be dressed and alert for that. Every second that ticks forces me to realize I need to just stay awake for another…

Sacrament Dream
This morning after changing a diaper and falling back to sleep in real life, I dreamed that I was in Sacrament Meeting and falling asleep there. I was leaning against another brother who didn’t seem to mind. When I woke up I was playing a racing game on my cellphone, but I had to stop…

36 Hours
36 Hours is the longest I’ve been awake in a long time. It’s been a good day, night, and another day. I need to take my psych meds and eat. Hopefully I can sleep after that. It obviously didn’t work last night though.

My Lap
For about a year Magic would curl up in my lap and sleep. Sometimes this was for several hours. Then Ether came and has tried to claim my lap since then. But Magic isn’t going to let him bully her and I won’t either. Magic was in my lap this morning and Ether walked up…

Sleeping with a Cat
Last night Ether was climbing all over Stephanie while she was trying to sleep. She got fed up with him, put him in my room, and closed her door. Ether immediately wanted my attention instead, but I was also trying to sleep. He climbed all over me for about twenty minutes and eventually lay down…

Healing
Stephanie has been writing about healing a lot lately. Her own healing is her story to tell and she is telling it sporadically. My own healing is relatively minor compared to her needs. I hate being sick. I don’t allow health problems to slow me down when I can help it. But that means when…
