Update: still sick! This is my third day away from school and I am non-stop stressing out at home. I hate being away from my kids. I hate being out of routine and seeing the work pile up right in front of me. Bah. Stressful. Nonetheless, the doctor forbid me from school for three days. And so.....I'm trying to pull some reverse psychology on my body to see if that works better than the meds. Here it goes:
* Dehydration? Muscle aches? WHO CARES! It's a real party in the "IV" department of the hospital. I get to listen to people on the neighbouring cots say things like "can you please bring me an iPhone charger?" and "this is ridiculous - I've been waiting for 10 minutes!" Haha, if they only knew what home was like.
* I usually have to change every four or five hours because the clothes I am wearing end up DRENCHED within this time period. But really - it's like one ongoing game of dress-up! I'm just like Britney Spears on tour - keep the costume changes coming! (And Phil is happy with the amount of laundry I am producing!)
* This is the perfect time to watch movies - something that I can rarely sit through when well because I get bored and need something to fidget with. Well, THANK YOU WEAKNESS! Today I managed to watch "The Help" and "The Smurfs" without any effort.
* Two nights ago I pulled my first all-nighter in YEARS! It was fabulous. If someone had video taped my evening and then put it into super-fast mode, it probably would have looked like a really fun dance party.
* Me being sick has brought out "SUPER PHIL"!!!! Phil is already the most kind, wonderful, thoughtful, and CARING husband there is. But he's reached a whole new level. Prime example: he took care of me INSTEAD of watching the last quarter of the Super Bowl (the only quarter he was awake for). I LOVE YOU, HUN! THANK YOU! xo
* My mountain of Kleenex sorta resembles snow. It's that time of year ;)
Now....did you hear that BODY?! I am having a blast. Really!
(Fingers crossed that this bug "scrams" SOON! I MISS SCHOOL!)
Hello! Hope you are feeling better soon. We are all sending you healing wishes. We love you. xo
