No more sick days...

I never really thought about this as I started my new job as a stay at home mom. There is no longer a service I can call and say that I a sick and then a substitute would be sent to my classroom and my students would be at least supervised. There is no service like that for me now. I am not sick enough to take hubby up on his offer to stay home from work, but sick enough to be really tired and feel like crap. Minnow is still teething and fighting his first cold.


On days like this I wish I was here...walking the streets of Paris, eating a crepe from a street vendor and lounging in a cafe eating warmed goat cheese rolled in roasted garlic and drizzled with olive oil.

amen.... having mom sick is the WORST! It is actually a good thing when the kids are sick the same time as me b/c it tends to make them slow down a little bit (and that is good for my sake...).

Sorry you are all sick. We have all been fighting it for the last few months. Knock on wood that we are on the upswing....

I'm afraid you have just made the discovery that will haunt the rest of your years. Mom's don't get to be sick. At least, not like everyone else. 8^(

Now, on to the whole walking in Paris thing.....I WANT one of those crepes!!!!
