A Wee Bit Knackered
Last night was a rough night. Rough, with a capital R.
Jaysen was sent home from school yesterday - he felt a bit poorly the night before, and tried the "I feel ill" routine for about five nanoseconds, then saw the snow and seemed fine. And being Harsh Evil Daddy, I would have shipped him off anyways.
They sent him home before midday. Oops.
So yesterday afternoon he just chilled out, rested and dozed on and off. A sure sign he's not feeling well. Then he just wanted to sit and watch DVDs, not bother with the computer or playstation - another sure sign - and was in bed a little after eight.
I went to bed around ten or so, and sat chatting to Kellie on the phone for about an hour and a half, then nodded off. Just After one, I popped awake - I had heard Jaysen shuffling around, and woke up to make sure he was OK. He felt ill, couldn't settle, needed a drink...
After waking, I could NOT get back to sleep. I don't know if I was worried he'd need me, or if I was too hot (pfft, -4C last night!), too cold (more likely), or just simply could NOT get comfortable. Whatever, I was awake till gone four, seeing to Jaysen on and off. He was just poorly all night long - not sickness or anything, but aching, hurting, hot, cold...
Joy.
I was then popped awake a few times after dozing off, and at about eight this morning, I threw in my cards and gave up with the sleep-thing. Jaysen has just tottered downstairs, burning hot, eyes like crap and aching - coupled with a sore throat and blocked nose - and has resumed his Flopped On The Sofa position watching Spongebob.
He's poorly and tired, I'm knackered... Should be a good day :S
