It never ends... Mood
Sunday, April 6, 2008 | A Frustrating story

I start to think today may be a better day for me physically then the kids decide to be sick. When the kids are sick the entire world comes crashing down. It started last night (the night where I desperately wanted to go to bed as soon as possible). I finished checking emails and hear "Mommy!!!!" - the five year old had thrown up everywhere. It was on him, the bed, the bedding, etc...it was so bad he needed a bath and I threw away his blanket. Then today he is still not feeling great and the eight year is antagonizing him to no end. The two of them are at each other’s throats. ADHD meds or not - they are out of control today. This is the last thing I needed on a day I was feeling somewhat human again. Of course this week is spring break for the kids so I get no break while they would typically be at school. I love them but it is nice to get a break during the day. Even right now they are screaming at each other and there is nothing I can do because their lack of impulse control takes over and there is no reasoning with them. It is almost better to just let them scream it out of their systems then to intervene. God I am tired. Tired of being tired, tired of kids bouncing off the walls, tired of not knowing what tomorrow morning will bring. Just tired!

    I'll bet you're tired. Oh my dear child what a difficult situation you are in. Can you possibly get someone to help with the children? You can't handle this all yourself. You need a break!
    Praying for strength for you. xoxoxo

    I know what you are going through, my kids are the same way. But my middle daughter should know better she is 19 and my youngest is only 11. And they go at eachother like cats and dogs. And the ADHD in both of them is terrible. All I wanted to do yesterday was sleep and all my kids could do was fight and scream all day. I always thought it was because of thier age differance, but it isn't. And I know what you mean about being tired of being tired and being sick. You are a good mother, I can tell by just reading you journals. When you decide to put them on meds of if you don't it will be the right choice for you. Get feeling better and stay strong don't let these illnesses hold you back. Traci
