I can not remember a time where I was as sick as I was last night. I was up all night in the bathroom with some kind of stomach bug or food poisoning. But regardless - it was awful. I wondered at about 3:00am if I should just go to the ER because there had to be absolutely no water left in my body. Luckily at about 3:30, my stomach stopped churning long enough for me to rest a little and I think I only got up once or twice between 3:30 and 5:30 but I was still needing to take the day off.
Taking a day off of school is just as much work as staying at school. (Maybe that's a slight exaggeration - but only slight) I texted my awesome co-worker Misty and although she was willing to help gather all the things and help me - I realized that it was virtually impossible. So at 6:15am - I decided to drive to school - hoping I would make it without needing a trip to the bathroom. I was also hoping that I wouldn't see anyone because I was in my glasses, sweats, and I looked all kinds of terrible. Luckily I slipped into my room, typed my plans, printed my plans, and set out the days materials and was back out of the building by about 7:15.
After I got home - we decided to send Grayson on to Mrs. Sam's (his AMAZING childcare provider) even though he has a little cold. And back to bed I went. I just woke up a few minutes ago around 12:00. My tummy is a little rumbly but I'm managing to get down some gatorade and crackers.
Needless to say - I'm home alone for a sick day. Although being sick is terrible - it's kind of nice to be sitting at home alone for a few minutes. I can't remember the last time I was in my home alone for longer than a couple minutes to get something done while G is at mom's house.
So I'm taking to blogging. I hardly ever have time to sit down and type but today I do. Maybe I'll write a few more.
