I feel so yucky

I'm sick.I am a teacher and a mother, and I do not get sick.  I get headaches, sometimes a sniffly nose, a sore throat occasionally, but I do not get sick.
My sick days are for my children. My parents live nearby and watch them with a fever and an earache, but I stay home when materials are being expelled forcefully.
My family left for church, and I went back to bed for a five hour nap.  After falling asleep at 8:30 last night after the birthday party.  I've been awake almost for an hour and a half. And I want to go take another nap.
My very hands-on student has had a horrendous cough for about two weeks now, and accidentally coughed into my eye earlier this week. I decided I would be fine. That afternoon my eye started to get sticky like a pink-eye infection  ( I get those from my students occasionally too). But it went away. And then my throat started to hurt a little. And I started to cough a little. Oh and a fever. And now everything is really BIG. I feel bad for my kiddo at school. How has he stayed in class and participated feeling like THIS??? We are off tomorrow for President's Day, which is good because otherwise I might actually take a sick day for me.
Sorry the fantasy and reality for Mice and Beans isn't done.  If my fever breaks, I might get to finish it. I'm going back to bed.

  1. Feel better soon! I have felt the same way since Thursday...with an added BAD earache. I have slept most of the weekend and have no energy to do anything. I have been looking at the blogs for about 15 minutes and feel like I need to go lay back down before I fall asleep at the computer. My kids don't come to school tomorrow, but its a professional development day for me...I gotta feel better.

    Praying for you!

  2. Good luck at school. See if you can talk your team into getting you some chicken noodle from Panera.
