weak

 yeah, this week was definitely more actually coming down with something than allergies, although i think allergies are a part of it.

yesterday:

i was completely broken yesterday, but still needed to go on a shopping mission and take mr smear to the school to pick up a book he needed for homework.

the mall was FULL of mall people. it's not usually that bad, but between them and how i was feeling and the supermarket not having everything on our list, it was very unpleasant. and then i forgot some important things, and that made the morning longer.

in the afternoon, we had our usual fight getting mr smear started with his homework, and then the usual breezing through the homework once he accepted his fate. it's so tiring...

one great thing, though - i bought him two books, conditionally, and one of them is a hebrew translation of spiderman comics. this is the first time we've seen him voluntarily read a hebrew book, and that's huge.

one awful thing: i messed up with calculating our finances, and last month was a lot heavier than i expected (－‸ლ)

today:

a mostly quiet day. gd and i left mr smear alone for a couple of hours for the first time ever, while we went for coffee and a liquorice taste-test with friends. it went well :)

most of the afternoon has been spent doing very little, very quietly.

now to try and herd him outside for some fresh air.
