Well as I have mentioned in my profile, I work in a group home for the mentally challenged. I was there the past two days and have had to deal with the worst part of the job. SICKIES. LOL Well it is hard enough for them to make life work when they are in the best of health, but when they are sick, it really is tough. One of my little gentlemen has been horribly ill with the stomach flu. So bad, in fact, that he was up in ER for five hours taking IV's for fluid. So I have been there and taking good care of him and doing my job and thinking , WHEW I feel pretty good and just MAYBE I wont come down with this bug. One of my coworkers had to be off the past two days due to the fact that he had gotten it by working the weekend. So I don't know why I felt sure I would get around it. But as I left work yesterday, I was thinking to myself, "I am fine. I have survived these past two days and I have the rest of my week all planned out and in order, so I will work my other jobs and do what I have planned".
NOT gonna happen that way, I soon discovered this morning. I got up and got my stores in order and all my paperwork together, loaded down my car with my cards, and was ready to get showered and on the road. The very minute I stepped into the shower, I felt it coming on. OH NO, NOT TODAY. I have 1o stores to do and I HAVE to work today. But my body was telling me otherwise, so I decided that I would just stay home today and work tomorrow and Friday instead. I have taken my Imodiem, my Pepto, and my aspirin and tylenol to try to make this better. I had already started a big pot of chili for the hubby tonight, so I don't have to worry about HIS dinner , but my belly is telling me I am NOT gonna go that route.
I have been in bed all morning and since I am home all day thought I would come post another chapter in my blog. I have been down here 15 minutes and in the bathroom for probably 10 of those. So I will make this short and sweet today and maybe be back this evening, if I feel better. Hope none of you are ill and that this monster passes you all.
