BaD #5: A BaD Week

Linked to Article Series: Blog a Day (BaD) 2014

I have plenty more iOS games to cover but I wanted to take a break to cap this week. What a week it has been! I'm drowning in blogs to read. Of course, you're all in the same boat. But this week was especially stressful for my family because one of my wife's uncles passed away last Sunday night and we decided to go to the funeral. We packed up the car once I got home Tuesday night and set out on the road. We were able to stay with some friends we hadn't seen in a while, and though it took us only about six hours to get there (no traffic late at night during the week), it was still 2 in the morning. My 18-month-old son Link slept almost the whole way but woke up about 30 minutes before we got there and wouldn't go back to sleep. I finally got him down at 3:15 but it didn't last long. Needless to say, we woke up tired.

After a busy day on Wednesday with the funeral, we were up late again because it was the only time we could spend with our friends. We ran some errands Thursday and left for home later than intended, getting back around 10 PM. Link stayed asleep even when I carried him inside but would wake up every time my wife or I put him down in his bed. I finally crashed into bed at 1:15 but had to get up at 5 for one last day of work this week. On top of that, I've had a stuffy nose and scratchy throat this week and Link developed a 100-degree fever today. Let me tell you, I'm so happy to see the weekend! Hopefully it will be very restful.

I'll try to catch up on some of these blogs tomorrow. We'll see. Sleeping gets first priority! Hope you all are doing well. Looks like BaD is off to a good start Smile

Thanks. I had about half a dozen "A Day with..." blogs already written, so I loaded up Tuesday and Wednesday's in draft form here on the site so that I'd just have to post them. I actually had to post Wednesday's from my phone while away from home.

Man, you've been very busy. Luckily, it's now weekend, so you can take your deserved rest.

I'm sorry to hear about your wife's uncle. I hope you and Link feel better soon. I wouldn't worry about commenting on blogs so much lol.

Normally I at least look through the blog titles but I don't even know what people have been posting lol

Never fun with funerals, like one never is.

Good luck rying to catch up, I can't even think I can write a decent blog during this time.

The real question is did you grow a decent beard?
