You would think that children’s cartoons would be more entertaining while trippin’ on DayQuil, but you know what? They aren’t.
Poor Jeremiah is teething and I have a sneaky suspicion that he might have the same cold that I have…or I am teething too. He has a big ol’ snotty nose. Keep in mind, I’ve had three girls of my own, but I have never seen so much snot in my life. It’s no longer clear and has moved on to cool colors. He fights me every time I pull out the tissues. This child might have been Mr. Miyagi in a former life. I’m pretty certain if I were to hand him a pair of chop sticks he could catch a fly.
If he doesn’t want his nose wiped. It does NOT get wiped.
Today I woke up around 5 am and took my DayQuil. At 6:00 am Marina brought Jeremiah in my room and we sat and watched Sesame Street until 8:00 am. By this point I am stone, cold trippin’ on my DayQuil buzz. The Backyardagans came on and I was so excited because it wasn’t one I had seen before. As the morning progresses, Jeremiah gets tired and takes a nap. Since I have taken my dose of DayQuil and two cups of coffee, there is no way this girl is sleeping. I can’t breath anyway.
Now The Backyardagans are on again and I’m pissed because it’s one I’ve already seen. Jeremiah woke up and now I’m tired. With both of us being sick, you would think there would be an adult around to be able to take care of us, because when I am medicated I’m about as useless as a 4 year old.
I’m thinking after we drop Jessica off at school, (Yes, I am required to drive) that I’m going to go find an adult that will agree to watch us and make sure we don’t hurt anyone or ourselves.
I’m on DayQuil and the baby is on Tylenol. Which one of is more responsible to drive the 5 year old to school?

Maybe you should find some crack to add to the mix, then you’d surely be the one that should drive the 5 year old to school.
Hope you feel better.
The thing is, Dayquil isnt supposed to make you loopy. You must be taking it wrong.
yeah, thats it.
Feel better.
There is a new backyardigans on every day this week. :-)
You know you’re a mom when that’s the most exciting part of your day. *sigh*
Feel better!
You get stoned on Dayquil?
Nice.
How the hell does one take DayQuil wrong?
You put the orange gel tab in your mouth and you swallow. gag. take the next one. Am I sposta to some anti-stoned hoobie joobie dance before?
Yes Pissy, STONE COLD BUZZIN. Like I can hear the crap that the refridg is saying to the oven about me. It’s not pretty. I am not liked in my own home and it’s going to turn on me, soon. You watch. The microwave curses like a sailor!
I’m thinking the 5 yr old would be better off walking ;-)
Hope you feel better hun!
Hoping you both feel better soon.
I wonder if something is wrong with me. DayQuil does nothing for me, except that part where it allows me to breathe partially.
Wish I lived nearby so I could come over to make hot tea for you and bring you random stuff from the dollar store to see if I could make you laugh.
1. You can totally drive on Dayquil!
2. Backyardigains? They annoy me – why not Blue’s Clues? Joe is oh so HOT!
