My Sickies

Just when I think I'll have the time to blog, I get sickies in the house. In situations like these I often say, "The best laid plans of mice and men..." and when I'm with my mom she finishes the quote as I have trouble remembering the ending! :)

Anyway, on Tuesday, S. was sick with a stomach ailment. She only ate crackers, ginger ale, and 1 piece of outside crust from a homemade pizza.

On Wednesday I decided to keep her home so she could regain some energy. She did, but unfortunately I didn't have very much as my allergies were totally knocking me out and the medicine hadn't kicked in yet.

Thursday found Wayne ill and he even called in sick to work. (He rarely does this.) He started to feel better around 11 am, but then got really sick again after dinner.

Friday Wayne woke up sick again and again called in. He decided it was time to go to the Dr.

I also got a call from the school nurse saying J. came down to her office with ear pain and his ears were red and she thought I should take him to the Dr.

I scheduled an appt. for J. for after school as he had a poetry celebration that he very much wanted to attend and has worked on it for a long time. Plus his sister, grandparents and I were all planning on being there.

Long story shorter, Wayne has a really bad sinus infection and is on medication. I am hoping that he will feel better soon.

J. has a very small ear infection in his right ear and a horrible ear infection in his left. They were using words like bulging and red to describe it. He is on medicine for that.

Thankfully we have insurance.

So, I guess now I have blogged, although it certainly isn't what I was planning on writing about!
