Now I know how he felt...



I think I wrote about Andrew spending the night and how he woke in the night in extreme pain....that was my night last night.  I now know that it wasn't what me and my daughter thought but it was a form of a flu bug that lasts only a few hours but comes with all the yuckiness and includes stomach pain.  I had some anti-nausea pills and some other aids that I didn't hesitate to take.  With Andrew I did not offer these as you never know how they might react with children.

Today I took a day off even though I felt ok to go to school.  I was tired though and knew I wouldn't be energetic enough to do what I do.  I am sure the kids wonder where I was.  Tomorrow is Friday and it is always exciting on Friday.  I keep a bottle of hand lotion there and the kids love it because it smells like chocolate.  I went through the first bottle quickly because they begged me to have some...so after that we dubbed Friday as lotion day.....they know that each Friday anyone can have a little dab of Grandma's lotion.  We have missed so many Fridays lately that they are really looking forward to tomorrow...so I am hoping that I will sleep tonight and feel okay to go to school.

I have spent the day resting, watching tv, and reading.  Now I feel like I need to move around and do something.  Have a great day!!

  2. No school today so the kids will again miss Lotion Friday. We haven't had school on Friday for 4 weeks now.

  3. No school today will just make them enjoy the lotion even more later on. Glad you are feeling better and with another day and the weekend off, you should be good to go by Monday.

  4. I'm glad to hear you will have another day to rest and recover from the bug, but I know the kids will miss seeing you and getting chocolate lotion!! Take care, now, and I hope you can enjoy your weekend!
