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. :)

Its not always 50/50

 Sometimes one person has to hold up more weight than the other does. Lately I feel as though I am that person holding the extra weight. Lately I have been wishing I was not that person. I feel like I am being spread a bit too thin... I also feel like no matter how many times I try to explain myself, it does not matter.  So I will just keep waiting, and hopefully eventually someone will come and take a few books off of my stack. Take a load off. Help me out. Chip in. You get it? I am sure you do. Now if only other people did as well.  God doesnt give you more than you can handle. I wonder sometimes if He thinks the load he's giving me is being more evenly distributed than it is... Maybe he can review my case :)

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 ...

Done Growing

 Well soon enough it will be the start of a new school year. Sooner for my younger two, than for my older two. So today we went to get a few things that will be needed. Some shoes, socks and backpacks. Mommy needed a new pair of shoes too, I wear mine out pretty quickly being on my feet as a waitress.  So my son is about the pickiest shoe person out there. Nothing fits. We have to try on like every.single.shoe. in his size before he can choose. Its irritating and stressful. Hannah was pretty easy although she did not take the cheaper "on sale" pair I liked best. Either way she was quick and painless.  So then mom's turn. I put on a pair of 6.5 I wear those or 7's depending on the shoe. I wanted to try those new shoes with the curved bottom. Anyway... I get the 6.5 on and Hannah feels for my toes. "Oh you better get a size bigger" She says. "Those wont last the whole school year!" I told her I did not have to worry about outgrowing my shoes. My ...
