My Turn
I have pulled the ultimate "Mom" trick or stunt or whatever. Of course as a teacher, the last day before break is a big deal...we are all counting down no matter how much we love our jobs. Over the past few weeks, my peers have been dropping like flies from the flu, really bad cases. MOTH has had a lot of trouble breathing and has had to take up the nebulizer to get him through the change in temperature and humidity. Both Finchie and BEAST have had more than their fair share of weird illnesses. I have had to miss word due to their illness or court or jury duty, so I was afraid that if I got sick, I'd be sunk.
Yesterday, about an hour before the kids left on their buses, I began to cough. And cough. By the time I got home, my head was pounding and I had an unusually heavy case of the sweats. I put in a miserable night. I took a cough suppressant which wasn't a good idea, because I woke up with lungs full of cement.
I've laid around all day trying to get my head out of its vice. So far, no luck. So much for the Christmas shopping I have yet to do. So much for the remainder of the house decor, hell so much for having a half-way clean house.
The mom trick I spoke of? Wait until a break starts to get sick yourself. Use up your sick days on everything and everyone but you, and when you have the time, THEN and only then are you allowed to get sick.
Won't you PLEASE leave your feedback here?
