Still Sick…Still Stressed

I had a major headache last night. A lot of time caffeine helps my headaches but I can’t take excedrin. So I drank a cup of coffee. My stomach was not ready for that yet. I spent hours last night in total agony. This morning I woke up feeling a little bit better but my back and stomach muscles are killing me. My tummy is still gurgling so no coffee for me today.

As for stress, well, that is in overdrive. Lauren came home with a hickey yesterday. Those of you who don’t have daughters be grateful right now. I’m irritated and Kevin is beyond pissed! I knew about it shortly after it happened. I didn’t tell Kevin because I felt that Lauren is 16 now and she needs to take responsibility for her actions irregardless of how tough that is. She had done 3 major faux pas: she went off campus without permission, she got a hickey, and then she tried to hide it & lie to her dad about it. I can understand trying to hide it until you get get the balls to be straight up and honest about it but that didn’t happen. Stress overload. Long weekend :(
