Vomiting at midnight, sleeping until 10
The stomach bug has gone through 2 of my kids so far. It’s a waiting game now for the rest of us. My daughter had an elevated temp yesterday with an upset stomach. This was during a full day of academics, Lego club, and boys’ soccer practice. She woke up at midnight after hurling watermelon and chicken onto her white bedspread. The joys of parenting….
The plus side for me (selfishly) when my kids are fighting off a bug is it gets me out of taxi-driving. Is that wrong that I feel immediate satisfaction when I know I can now stay home and address dirty toilets and laundry mountains? We also slept in until 10:00-yah! Well, at least the bottom 2 and me. Hubby was up at 7:00 getting the older boys out the door for a lacrosse tournament and soccer festivals.
Teaching through the nausea
Today has been less than pleasant for me. I picked up a stomach bug somewhere, so I’ve been dealing with the lovely GI symptoms that go along with that. I taught all day just trying to keep a healthy distance from the kiddos, but let’s face it. As much as they are with me, it’s highly likely they’ve already been exposed so might as well keep on working on academics in between my pauses-ugh…
A rarity for me-its 9:30, and I’m already in the bed. I haven’t seen this bedtime in a very long while.
My daughter took this picture of me-kind of creepy, isn’t it? I have my trash bag hanging on the lamp just in case!
Greener grass tomorrow..
