MONDAY. I was pretty pleased to make it into the office today as I had a major dose of cabin fever from being snowed in.
Also, my baby got really sick on Friday (fever of 40+, febrile seizure -like symptoms.) Nae chance an ambulance would have got to us quickly in the 4 foot snow drifts. God bless my 79 year old dad for coming and digging us out and driving us in his wellies in his big tank-like car to the GP surgery.
God bless our GP, who is an old school friend of mine and who was so fantastic and attentive, and who went against the usual advice of punting us off to hospital to ‘be safe’, by trusting me to have the wherewithall to care for him at home with strong antibiotics and fever reducing meds, and fluids, and hourly hydration and temperature checks. I am fucking exhausted but we managed to keep him out of hospital and he’s really improving already.
God bless God because I said more prayers in that hour of my life on Friday than I think I’ve ever done, even when he was poorly after being born.
Got a pretty busy week at work coming up, including a brilliant conference for female investors and entrepreneurs on Thursday that I’m really v excite about.
No dread levels for me this week, although I will be much happier once the snow is properly gone.
