Quarantine....

  Over the weekend, Destiny stayed with a friend. A friend who had NOT went to school Friday. Says it was because she "missed the bus" I was unaware that friend missed school until Destiny had already left and was at her house.

 So anyway Saturday evening she called me to come and get her, her friend was now sick. After she got home her friend let her know she'd been to the doctor, and been told she has the flu. Oh GOODIE! So of course within moments Destiny feels sick. I feel its the power of suggestion, or the power of a Monday off school. So I ignore it to some extent.

 So Sunday she's complaining of being tired, well she stayed up all night with her buddy! She also has a headache, but she wants to go to a BBQ at a friends (family friends) so we all go. She seemed okay there, a bit tired, but I figured that, was because of the headache.

 Today she woke up and ate breakfast, got dressed, took her temp, and some ibup. for a headache, and I sent her off to school. Around noon she came home. Fever, and the school nurse thinks "flu" symptoms. BOOOO. So I told Tim (who luckily was off work) to keep her in her room get her some fluids and lysol the hosue :OP

 When I got home I brought her a sprite and she was surprised she had "slept" all day. She thought it was already tomorrow!!! Her temp is 102.1 and she feels icky. Its not stopping her appetite, so I am just going to take the laid back watch her and see approach.


 The other kids I think miss her, they have made her get well soon cards and Bailey said she could use his little DVD player to watch movies. She is bored and wants out. I do not want to spread the germage though. I am the only one allowed into her room I said to Promise earlier when she was going to follow me in.

 "Well that's DUMB" she said when I came back into the kitchen. "Your the one that needs to NOT get it" she says..... "If you get it, HOW will we have dinner???"

 Isn't it nice to know your needed, and loved?

 SO I have had all the kids go around wiping doorknobs and light switches, TV knobs, with antibacterial wipes, hand washing is a MUST and lysol is the new scent in my home. I have made it my TOP goal to NOT let the other kids get this. I have given them all the herbal stuff I had on hand to keep them from spreading strep back and forth, which by the way WORKED, and I am praying it also works with this flu or whatever it is, germ.

 So cross your fingers for me!!! Oh and well wishes for Destiny are appreciated too, although I am pretty certain, with her appetite still there, she will be just fine. :)

some days

 The kids are just cute. I know I normally talk about how bratty they are. but today, well today they were just cute. All of them, even Destiny. Believe it or not.  Hannah came down the little car line to get into the van and she was smiling and so happy, and so dang cute. Promise had a friend over part of the day Bailey played mario and Destiny told me my shirt looked like a hobo shirt (it was Tims)  Today was just a good day. not sure what made it that way. the kids mostly got a long, there were a few SHUTUPS tossed out but for the most part it was pretty peaceful. I wish more days, were like today.  I went to Lowe's today to get a shelf thing to put in our laundry room. Its so exciting! TO think a shelf would be nice here, and then think YEAH, I'll put one in. See we can do that, cus we OWN our house! :) Its awesome!  I got a few more seeds today. Sweet baby peppers, zucchini and squash too. Yum. I really hope something grows this year. I am SO sore f...

 Why is it when you do something wrong, people will point it out, over and over and notice every detail, but the things that you do right... They go unnoticed for ages?  Training at work this week has been tiring. I have been super busy so its hard to actually train someone... I have to get my tables taken care of. I have the kids just getting into the swing of things with school, and training myself to go to bed early has proven unsuccessful. I basically feel over worked and under slept. As I mentioned on facebook I think there are plenty of hours in the day... I need more hours at night, to work with....  Kids are all adjusting well to school life again. Still going to sleep easily at night, which I know wont last so I am enjoying it while I can. I cannot believe I have a child who is a sophomore this year. I am still not believing that actually.  Tomorrow is super busy, we have Dr visits, I have blood work done, Girl scout meeting to attend and then a split ...
