Crazy Thursday...

Background Information:

My baby sitter's daughter got sent home from school on Tuesday with pink eye. Therefore, on Wednesday I had to use my back up sitter - my friend Courtney. When I got to Courtney's house Wednesday afternoon to pick Lydia up she told me that her daughter, Karlee, had been getting sick that day.

On To Today:

I took Lydia to the sitters as normal. I got about 5 miles away and she called me that her son had woke up with pink eye. (More background info: Lydia had pink eye a few week ago and putting those drops in her eyes was like trying to get blood from a turnip. It took Gail and I both to hold her down.) I didn't to deal with the eye drops again so my main concern was getting her picked up QUICKLY!!! I called Courtney not know that she had been up all night with two sick kids and was sick herself. So I quickly call my school and told them I needed a sub for the day. Lydia and I still had to make it to Kirksville to make lesson plans. On the trip Lydia got sick in the back seat - MILK - STINKY!!! We got into the school and changed her clothes, got plans made, and got home. I got an appointment for myself because my throat has been hurting for several weeks. While there I had to check Lydia out as well. We both got prescriptions and flu shots. Back to Kirksville for the meds and back home by 1:00. What a day off!! Hopefully tomorrow will be a normal day with no sickness and no emergency phone calls.

Until next time...
