Oy. Nothing to slow you down like a good bout of illness buried under several feet of snow!
All three kids came down with the sniffles on Monday which meant late nights, early mornings and lots of grumpy fussiness. Since I like to keep things interesting I went ahead and developed some intense ear and throat pain to go along with it. Don't want anything to get boring, ya know ;-)
And again in the interest of keeping things fun we discovered that the snow was not going to stop, our chainsaw couldn't cut another tree without being sharpened, the cut logs were buried under said snow and our split wood has dwindled to about a 4 day supply. Mother Nature is helping out though, and it was a warm sunny -9 degrees this morning.
A few days have passed and the kids are all cleared up, but my ear pain went from bad to terrible this evening when I made the seemingly poor decision to yawn. So, here I am, 1:30 in the morning, writing to you (NOT yawning) while the Lobelia tincture (the only suitable one I have on hand) works it's way into my screaming ear and I wait for the Skullcap tincture to bring on a state of imminent sleep. Ouch.
Send some healing vibes my way, eh?
While you're at it, send some over to Boho Girl's sister.

Oh Noes! Hopefully your ear feels better. I never suffered an ear ache until I started working with children and ouch! ouch! ouch. So sorry.
Oh mama! I had an ear infection about two weeks ago and those things really hurt. I hope you feel better soon. Mine lasted over a week before I broke down and used some cipro drops. The drops cleared it up really fast. I hope you feel better soon.
Hi Take care,and rest up, sometimes I have found that in my years of life ha, ha, that ear infections, are one of two things, One- you do not want to listen to something that you need to hear. and Two-You need to say something that someone will not probably like, so this is hard for you to do, as you know they will not listen, to what you have to say. Ear aches are not isolated things they are messages, telling our bodies that we need to listen.. cheers and "Happy listening days" Love Marie
