Nothing really new

J went camping over the weekend with his scout troop. P thought he had to work on Saturday, but it turned out he didn't. Which was a good thing because he was running a temp. all weekend. He is still kinda sick, but went to work yesterday. Sunday I had a PTO meeting, then P and I were supposed to look at our budget, but he didn't even get up until 5, and when I got home at 6,he was watching TV. I don't know if he came to look for me later, because I fell asleep early (not on purpose). S had to go to the orthodontist yesterday morning at 7:30. which made yesterday a long day. I fell asleep before any of the kids, but I did wake up around 9:30 and talked to the girls about going to sleep. I used to not be able to go to sleep until they were all asleep, I'm glad I'm finally over that. Even though I worry about them not getting enough sleep, or getting hurt, or something if I fall asleep first, I think they need to figure out for themselves how much sleep they need. This morning S had chorus before school, and J had a counseling appointment. The past 2 mornings S has set her own alarm and gotten up and been ready on time (she even made my breakfast for me this morning!) I am going to talk to her about her setting her alarm for every morning, it has been really nice making it her responsibilty and not mine to be ready on time. Tomorrow S has to go back to the orthodontist, then P and I have a counseling session, our "homework" was to do a budget and go out on a date once a week. Neither of which has happened. One date in 4 weeks (the lunch we went out to after our last appointment) and no budget. But to be fair P has worked 6-7 days each week for the past month, except for last week, and then him being sick, and I'm still fighting the cold, I think really started in October, but it no sooner gets better one day and the next I'm sick again. Plus all the physical therapy and doctor appointments I've had, hasn't helped much either. Thinking about doctor appointments, I went to see my foot doctor on Thursday. She taped my foot, to see if that would help. Not really. And I had to keep my foot dry, which didn't work so well to shower, even though I taped a plastic bag around my foot. I tried a rubber band 2 mornings and that didn't even work. This morning after my shower I took the tape off, since it wasn't working anyway, I thought there's no use in keeping it on. Walking hurts so freaking bad. I have to go back on Friday, to see the doctor at which point if she isn't going to do something to help me, I'm going to have to find a new doctor.
