I have been trying to juggle taking care of Pipsqueak and taking care of Santiago and it is wearing me out! My family has been helping a lot but tomorrow everyone will be back to work so I'm not sure how I'll swing hospital visits... When I'm at home I feel like I should be at the hospital with Tiago...and when I'm at the hospital I feel like I should be at home with Pip. And now I am also out of clean diapers, clean dishes, clean clothes, clean bedding/towels, and food to eat (though no time to cook so I guess that's a non-issue). I honestly can't remember the last time I bathed...Thursday night? Wednesday? It's almost funny how disgusting everything around here looks: my hair, my kitchen, the laundry room...!
I'm okay though. I am scared for Tiago's road to recovery. I am terrified of how I will manage to keep it all together once T comes home and needs me full-time. But it's okay, we're managing. I feel mostly peaceful.
Well the Squeak is asleep and it is now my chance to get that much-needed shower! Maybe I'll even have time to tackle Mount Dirty-Dishes in the hour I have before Church starts... Or maybe I'm being a little too ambitious. One thing at a time. Right. Off to shower!
