Time to catch up

Well, it's been a few days since I last posted. Here's what's up:

Friday was my birthday, not saying how old, but it wasn't the best day. I think I deserve a do-over because I wasn't able to get a sub and I felt really sick. Rather than having to have them split up my class I went to work and wound up being sick the whole weekend. I did manage to get Jim to sub for me on Monday so I rested up a bit. I was feeling better this morning and then the unthinkable happened...

One of the girls in my class came back from recess late with a note from the health office saying that she had no fever, therefore, get thee back to class. About five minutes later, from across the room, I hear her vomitting. I could just envision a vomit fest similar to the one in the movie "Stand by Me" so I ordered everyone out. They hesitated but finally got up and out. She washed her hands in the restroom while I filled out the nurse card for her and called for Jack. We wound up playing kickball for about 40 minutes then Christina Saucedo lent me her little office space so we grabbed our books and stayed in there until lunch. I could swear the germs were invading my body as I worked this afternoon but so far no vomitting from me, knock on wood.

I'm expecting happiness in a box tomorrow from SU! I just love being able to pre-order even though I wind up not using things for months it seems. Just thinking about having new stamps tomorrow is making going to work seem worth it. Hopefully this weekend I can get myself organized and get Kristin's workshop ready for the 17th.
