Weekly Wrap Up | 10/16/22

Aloha friends!

Did both my kids finally get through one week of school without being super sick? YES. Except my daughter’s cough (which I think is now due to allergies/post nasal drip) was bothering her at night. So I had her take Zyrtec, and set a cool-mist humidifier on at night – hoping it helps. Basically I’m just trying to fight it turning into some sinus infection or something. I just need her cough to go away, it’s worst at night. Since my son had to go to his annual physical on Saturday I asked if they could see my daughter too for her cough and she’s going to try another round of antibiotics plus Flonase to clear up all her congestion. There was a news segment here in Hawaii that the children’s hospital and pediatricians all over the state was seeing an unusual amount of sick kids so early in the year (instead of around Nov-Dec usually). And their doctor and I talked about it, so she confirmed that yes it was a rough September for lots of kids. Let’s hope this regimen works for my daughter. 🙏🏼

As for me I barely made it out of the week – I had what seemed to be a stomach bug/stomach flu whatever you want to call it. I had body aches, chills, an elevated temp, sweats, and diarrhea. Not fun! 😒 I’m not 100%, I’m getting there though. Main thing is that I can get up and still get through my daily routine/chores/errands/keep the household going – ya know? 😅 And I think our fridge is finally fixed! I hate to

Plus…it’s been hot this week! We had rain, which is nice but that means it’s been so humid. I blame the weather for messing with our sinuses and allergies. It sucks but just gotta keep going! I am really taking it week by week here lol.

Also – I started Christmas shopping! Have you guys started? I figure I start now because November is going to be crazy for me and then my hubby leaves for Okinawa, Japan in the second week of December. 😓Chills and Thrills ~ Spooky Book Season

  1. I’m glad you are starting to feel better as well as your kids. Once my daughter gets a cough she seems to have it forever as well.

  2. Yay for the kids getting through a week of school. Prayers for your daughter and you. There seems to be a lot of people getting sick earlier in the year. The flu just went through my husband’s work and he brought it home. My hubs got hit the hardest, but my daughter is still fighting congestion and a cough.

  4. The weather has been rainy and hot hot humid here and I feel like it’s been messing with a lot of people here too. This past week saw me feeling pretty sick as well. I hope you and your kids continue to get better in the week ahead and that it’s a little less rough for everyone! I hope you at least get to read some great books 😉

    1. Thanks Dini! I hope you are better – I do think the humidity/rain messes with my sinuses and allergies now (as I’m older because this didn’t happen when I was younger). We’re doing much better which is great!
