Day 28 - Stir Crazy

This is the look I get when I haven't left the house in four days. :) Our routines are all out of whack. The sick kids are feeling less sick and more restless. The attentive caregiver has turned into a weary caretaker. And between school work, housework and work-work, we're in a constant state of catch-up.

On the bright side, E has been fever-free for nearly 24 hours! She'll go to school tomorrow. And if H follows suit, she'll be well by the weekend. My mom is flying in tomorrow (my parents have a house here), and has graciously volunteered to keep H for the rest of the day and pick up E so she doesn't have to go to aftercare tomorrow. That will let me get to the office and try to pick up some of the pieces there. I see a light at the end of the tunnel! :)

ETA: I would have been far more crazed if I'd had to haul my sick kiddos out into the cold, wet yuck to fetch Tylenol for fever and ice cream for sore throats. THANK YOU to my dear, sweet sister for saving my sanity with supply runs. I love you, sis!
