So, at 3:45am guess what wonderful sound I awoke to. If you guessed a barfing child, you would be correct. so again, thank you to those who knowingly send a sick child to school. I know there are times you just don’t know, but come on, 3 kids on the same day in the same class, surely someone said “Mommy my belly hurts” before school that day.

So poor Lyssa has been restricted to her room, the throwing up stopped at 7am. so far so good. Now we just wait for the other shoe to drop. there are after all 3 of us here. Last year when it struck, I had help. Last year when it hit me so bad I couldn’t get out of bed for 2 days and was so dehydrated on the third that I felt hungover, I had a hunny to bring me gatorade and water with just a phone call to work.

Why can’t they just get the flu? Nothing feels crappier than a stomach virus. I guess I better catch up all my housework, just in case. I have the fridge stocked with ginger ale, gatorade, posicles, and water. I’m so tired, I just wanna sleep to make up for being up since 3:45am. Bahhhhhh!!!!

 

Let’s get this rant out of the way, and then I’ll move on to my good stuff. Why Why WHY do parents insist on sending puking sick kids to school!! WTF is wrong with people? 3 kids, just in my daughter’s class today (4th grade) were throwing up and sent home from school. I’m telling you what, my kid starts throwing up or complains of a belly aches, are these parents going to come here and clean it up, do the loads of laundry, scrub the carpets? Are they gonna then take care of my kids when it hits me? No, of course not. I’ve never understood these people, I never will. But thanks!! I won’t sleep for the next two weeks jumping every time I hear a noise from my kids rooms. I didn’t have enough worry to keep me awake, I needed the bonus plan. Dumba$$es.

/ end rant

Today I did something special for me. I have had waist length straight, med/dark brown hair for 3 years now. And by brown, I mean dull, one toned brown. So I decided I needed a change. I didn’t want a whole color change, just some oomph. So I had an appointment today on post, at the salon. I had my hair cut back up to shoulder length layers, and all over red highlights. I LOVE it. It’s exactly what I wanted. that is only the second time in my life I’ve gotten out of the chair and proclaimed it perfect. So, after that I bought *gasp* new makeup. I needed some new eyeshadow colors. I also needed a new winter coat, because I gave my good one to my oldest daughter and gloves. It was Mommy treat day. The kids had trick or treat Monday, so my turn. Here are the before and after…i realize the first is blurry, but it’s hard setting up these shots by yourself…lol

After

I also got a new curling iron, that powers off automatically so Nina doesn’t get any panicked phone calls from me while I’m at work…lol
