Under the Weather, But Now Feeling Better
Yesterday, I suffered a terrible stomach-achey-icky thing. I stayed home from work and tried to rest and not do anything. It’s tough to do with a toddler around, constantly making a mess of things.
I should have taken him to daycare so I could sleep without a foot in my face, but I feel so guilty when I drop Dawson at Renee’s. It’s ridiculous.
I spent most of my time on the couch with a blanket, held hostage by episodes of The Berenstain Bears, Dora & Diego, as well as Thomas the Tank Engine. I really had no choice if I wanted to keep the peace between me and a certain 3-year-old.
Doug went fishing in the morning and I cursed him for leaving me alone to die of diarrhea and not being able to eat.
I hate being sick.
Hate it.
But I feel a bit better this morning and I grabbed a bottle of Pepto and I’m headed to work.
Actually, I’m starving. A slice of cheese and a slice of toast are calling my name.

YUCK. I am usually sick every couple of months but have miraculously bypassed my sick schedule this summer. Here’s for hoping you get through yours!

Ugh. Being sick sucks. I’m sorry you were sick. Glad you’re feeling better. Doug gets a “Shame, Shame I know your name,” for going fishing while you were sick.

Glad you are feeling better. The last time I had a bug like that, I whined so much that Big J took Little J to work with him so I could get some sleep. I am miserable when I get sick – sounds like you were a much better sport about it.
