Well, after a wonderful weekend at the State Fair with my family last weekend I was ready to start a new week at full speed until I had to get sick. Monday night I went out to supper with two college friends who also teach in GI. We talked about everything under the sun including how much work it is to be sick and make sub plans. What a weird coincidence that that night I woke up in the middle of the night extremely sick. 3 hours later my husband woke up sick as well, but the bad news is he had to go to work the next day as he had no sick days left for the year. I ended up staying home and Landon went to daycare. Landon seemed fine all day. That evening afterschool my brother came to pick up Landon so Kurtis and I could rest some more. It was definitely needed!
The next day, we both went back to work and Landon to daycare. Then Thursday morning we got a text that my daycare lady was sick with exactly what I had and then my brother called saying he was sick too. Non of my backups could watch him and I was scared I would take him somewhere else and they would get sick too. So, once again I had to miss another day of work to stay home and take care of the little man. We are all hoping that we are over it now and I can actually go back to work. I feel so guilty being gone so early in the year. This junk should not be going around so soon!
I hear ya on the sub plans, being gone sucks. I hate having to use up sick days too. But just be glad Landen didn't get it. Bryce got it and was in the hospital for a day while none of the rest of us got it. Poor baby but lucky for your little man! There's always a bright side to something that seems so gloomy at the time!!
