Daniel has been able to spend more time at home this month which has been wonderful but, it won't last. After this week it is back to normal. Back to being alone most of the time.

We are trying to get a new place to live. Our friend is going to move in with us. We can't afford a bigger place on our own and he needs a place to live so I guess it works out. It will be hard to go back to having a roommate again but we are literally bursting at the seams in this tiny apartment. My kids need more space. If it weren't for them I wouldn't even think about moving before Daniel is done with school. I just feel like the walls are closing in on me here.

Gabe is sick. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised. We have actually had a really easy winter as far as illness goes. It was only a matter of time. Now, I am just playing the waiting game, unsure if it is bad enough to take him to the doctor or if she is just going to tell me to keep doing what I am doing. I don't want to be the mom who rushes her kids to the doctor for every sniffle but I also don't want to be the mom who ignores it. *sigh*
