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. :)

So Whats up with my oddly normal life?

 Huh huh? Cus it seems that I am never ever updating my blog these days. I am such a sloth!  Things happen and I think how I should blog about them and then I figure they are not really so interesting if you were not here. Then I remember I blog for me, not really for someone else. I want to be able to remember things, to come back and go oh yeah... Those were the days. Or whatever. I can't do that if I don't blog it.  I am going to try to be more regular with the blogs again, even if its what I made for dinner, and  how my husband kept me up snoring. If it doesn't interest you, you don't have to read it right!? :)  So whats been going on? the kids are growing. I got contacts, I am not sure how I feel about them just yet. Sometimes they are great, and sometimes I feel like I have an eye full of hair. Sometimes I can see great with them in, and other times everything is blurrier than when I had  them out. Meanwhile I wear my scratched up glasses while ...

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 ...

Time Flies

A year ago today my best friend gave birth to her second little boy. TWO years ago tomorrow my first granddaughter was born. Both seem like yesterday, but also so long ago. Two years in a row almost on the same day I got to watch the miracle of life happen... I have done it myself four times, but it never ceases to amaze me. To watch it is just amazing that our body does that. GROWS someone in side of us and then gets that someone OUT. Just amazing. Life is stressing me out right now however, I am trying to take this weekend to just tune out anything and everything that is getting to me, just have fun, go to birthday parties, eat cake and not worrry. Not worry about bills or calories or my steps (I even took my fit bit off) Just be me, just enjoy what there is in life to enjoy. My amazing friends, and my crazy family and the hot summer weather.
