Under Pressure

I. am. struggling. Almost 3 years ago, I had my first ever sinus infection. Oh, the pain. Excruciating. I had not experienced anything like it previously and never wanted to experience anything like it again. Fast forward to now. Low and behold, I have my second sinus infection. It is every bit as torturous as I recall. I thought I was being a tad cocky over the weekend, thinking the sickness of the last couple of weeks had slowly disappeared into thin air. And yet here I am.


Against better judgement, I decided to start taking Sudafed that has been in the cupboard since well... my last sinus infection. But the tablets don't expire until June, so they should be fine? Yes. They will be fine. At this point, I'm verging on desperate and a couple of stale pills couldn't make me feel much worse. I know there is a light at the end of this tunnel of illness, whilst it is hard to see the light right now, it's there. I am trying to exercise every. tiny. ounce. of patience I have left, with my beautiful boys. It is not their fault that I am disgruntled, in pain, short tempered. Felix is going through his own clingy, cranky-pants streak at present. Could be his teeth? Maybe it's having to deal with his demonstrative older brother? or maybe it's just sympathy pangs for his Mama? 


As soon as I'm feeling myself again, I have these delicious chocolatey friends to devour. Devour, I will. I simply LOVE handmade delights from the David Jones sweets counter... or any sweets counter for that matter. My Mama knows this. I am one lucky daughter.
