Feeling so ill and shakey...

What miserable day. I just got back from the old house, feeling so awful right now.... Everything hurts and I'm completely exhausted. I'm just trying to hold it all together long enough to get everyone some dinner.

I spent the whole day fighting with the computer trying to finish up some Christmas presents. I still can't get it to work and I don't know what to do. There isn't enough time left. I got so caught up in trying to fix things that I lost track of time. By the time that I realized, it was too late for me to start dinner in the crock pot, so now I have to cook down at the old house. This is one of those times when quick food would be such a blessing to us. I have the food cooking now. I'll have to go back down to finish up in a couple of minutes. I'm so exhausted. I honestly didn't think I was going to make it back up here.

Iain came down to the house while I was trying to cut open a squash. I couldn't stop shaking and I had the baby on my back wiggling around. He started arguing with me and wouldn't stop. He has such trouble with the house that he's not supposed to be down there at all. I ended up yelling at him and making him leave. It was awful. When I came back up to the house he had gotten Elijah to help him do some straightening up around the house tto help me out. He's such a sweet boy. I brought them up some carrots and rice cakes as a peace offering and to tide them over until dinner.

The baby took a bad spill this morning. I think he's okay, but I'm still shock up about it. If he had fallen just a couple of inches to one side it would have been an absolute nightmare scenario. I so wish that our house was safe for him to explore. I'm afraid to put him down anywhere now.

Steve is on his way home from the dentist right now. I'm worried about him. He just had three teeth pulled and they were really difficult extractions. He didn't sound well on the phone. The dentist is over an hour away and it's a really foggy night. Making normal time he should have been home by now. I'm just hoping that he's taking it easy and driving slow and will be home shortly.
