Taking a “Sick Day”

Normally on Thursdays, I post reviews. I have some great ones that I want to share with you too. However, they’ll have to wait. I’m sick (and physically tired). When Michael’s teacher mentioned that he’d probably be “sick for a year” (as he adjusts to a “child group setting”), I didn’t realize that the rest of the family would be too …oh well!

So, I told my husband that I’m taking a “sick day”. The only thing about that is that stay at home moms don’t really get sick days. I won’t be doing much blog/writing work but I will still be:

-caring for the kids
-finishing the laundry
-doing the four hour kid school commute
-cleaning the entire place for visitors that are coming over
-cooking
-etc., etc., etc.

I need to figure out how to include some real sick days in my “mommy” contract…
