Back to school - NOT

I was very much looking forward to Leah returning to school today. Alas that is not the case. She was up a lot of the night with fever AND coughing. Leah often coughs to the point of throwing up, so that happened too. I ended up sleeping in her room from 5-7:30am after being up with her at 4. It was a strange night, she fell asleep the night before at 5pm and slept til 7:30. Then she was awake until 9:30, but coughed in her room from 9:30 until 11 when she finally threw up. It was a miserable night all around. Thank goodness Erin slept all night.

My goals today are to complete my chores (clean the bathrooms and vacuum upstairs), ride our new (to us) stationary bike for 58 minutes, and stick to WW points for eating my meals. I also wouldn't mind napping when Erin naps due to lack of sleep last night. So that means I need to complete these things while she is awake. No easy task. At least Leah will be lounging watching TV most of the day (and I don't have to feel guilty about it, she's sick) so she will be pretty easy to handle.

Now that we are back to our boring everyday life (which I am pretty happy about for now), these blog entries will be pretty boring to read, I bet.

That really stinks! I was so happy for Ty to go back to school today, even though I had to go back to work. School is just so much more entertaining than me!

Poor Leah...and Erin! I seems like they just keep passing the sickness back and forth.

P.S. I have no kids AND dirty floors. What's going to happen when I have kids? How do you ever find time?

Mimi and Paw Paw are going to the MD today. Now Mimi has the cough and fever and aches. Paw Paw is in day 11 of the same. Sorry if I brought it on.
