Yes, you read that right. 5:22 AM. Atticus has been awake since 4:30 AM and is not interested in going back to sleep. Lets see…I went to bed at 11 PM last night. He woke up at 2:00 AM. Early for him, but not unusual. I fed him and put him back down. 3:00 AM Chloe started crying for me, so I went in and patted her back. Then 4:30 AM came, and I have been up since. I am tired.
Mind you, we are all fighting colds, or at least 3 of us are, Me, Ben and Chloe. I am not sure if Atticus has started the full fleged thing yet, I have noticed a few coughs and sneezes here and there, but nothing like the rest of us. Chloe has had a fever of 101 since Wednesday, and I can hear the congestion in her. Ben and I have the whole shebang…coughing, runny nose, congested head and chest…yada yada.
Oh well…I am waking Ben at 6:00 AM to tag team it if Atticus has not fallen asleep by then. At least then I will get maybe an hour before Chloe wakes up.
P.S. – I could give an update on the family after Ike. Most of the people that we know on this side of town have gotten their power back as of last night. My mom still is without power. Hopefully it will be back by Monday. My grandparents live in Kingwood, and their power is not restored yet, and there is no estimation as to when it will return. Ben’s grandparents live in Magnolia, and they are still without power. Their water has come back on though and that is good. Both grandparents have generators now to help with some of it. We have had unusually cool weather which has been helpful since there is no AC. Houston and Galveston are on the long road to recovery.
Ok, that is all I can give you, my brain is running on empty.
