Well, here we go again. It's not that I wish I didn't have to go down to my daughter's in the wee hours of the morning and take care of the kids. It's just that I am sick and exhausted. I can hardly hold my eyes open, and I prayed my way through the day. Kept grandson home from Head Start because he's sick too. Then couldn't stay awake to watch him. Falling asleep constantly. Good thing he's such a good little fellow.
My good days aren't all that good. My medical condition causes fatigue, my meds have side effects including fatigue, susceptibility to infections and exhaustion. But I keep pushing on because my daughter and those kids need me. She only makes minimum wage, and can't afford daycare. No support. No food stamps in this county. Can you believe 2 kids & minimum wage and she doesn't qualify for food stamps in this county? Thank God for the local food pantry, I go for her once a week. Thank God for the prayers of my friends and the love of my church. I don't mean to sound whiny. I'm actually very blessed. I'm just sick and exhausted.
