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. :)

8 years at the same job!

 I will say this about my work. No matter what is said, word gets around. Words also get twisted and changed, and rumors fly like well I don't know kites? I think co-workers are like a second family, not like to the point where you want to invite them over for Thanksgiving dinner... More like your around them enough that you are more than likely to have seen a bad side of them, and learned some annoyances. Chances are they were grumpy or depressed or pissed at some point and you have seen them at their worst. I think that makes it easier to get under each others skin and become annoyed. You get annoyed, you get over it, you move on. Your still co workers and you still get through. Like family, there are spats, you get over it move on and after it all your still family.  So do I always love my co workers or getting up early, or when someone is rude to me, or when I don't make any money... OF COURSE NOT. I have good days and I have bad days. Today it was raining, I would have L

Sleep IN Sundays!!!

My kids know this rule. For the most part. Sundays Mama sleeps in. Get yourself cereal, be quiet and get along... Then I go and do something foolish, like allow 3 of 4 kids to have a friend over, which makes SEVEN kids in one house. One of which, apparently did NOT know the sleep in Sunday rule, even in the SLIGHTEST :o/ Of course when one kid wakes up, or at least this kid wakes up. ALL the kids are up. This did, help my ease of getting them all in bed this evening, but even so! ACK! The weekend went well. We spent time together at the park. All but Destiny of course, who has her own life now. I took some pictures I really liked. I am too lazy to post them here. If you want to see them you can go here. www.flickr.com/clorissasue Anyway that is all I have for now. I started a new blog, you can see it here . It will be for cooking, and recipes and such. This one will be kept for kids and life and bitching :) Just what I needed. Something more to do :)

Call CPS this must stop now!!!

 My daughter, my oldest, the one I am a taxi for has had a ride to AND FROM several places where she was supposed to catch a ride home from this week. The library, she said she had a ride home, then the ride "left without her". The mall, I told her she'd be picked up by Tim when he got off work, and they were COLD and her friend had FLIP FLOPS on and no one came to the mall so can I get them now... She stayed the night at a friends and instead of waiting for friends mom to bring her home, she HAD to be picked up by 1 so she could go to a friends...  That friends? She was supposed to walk HOME from and she called for a ride.  So today it was lovely out. 65 or so out, sunny. School was out and Tim had to get the other kids first, as he stayed for a play Hannah was in... Well he did not pick up Destiny. I told her she could walk. For 30 min. I am NOT KIDDING 30 MIN. She sent him and I text after text asking to pick her up.  PLEASE I will clean, I cleaned my room, its &qu
