Sick

Over the past weekend Brandon came down with a fever and a cough. After medication he was doing better and went back to school yesterday, but what did I get?? The same thing....although I feel that I have it worse (bear yourself...venting coming) because:

1. I don't get to take the day off, I wish I could and I try but I still have to do the minimum to get everyone going.

2. No one I can go to take care of me, because I am a grown-up now and can't act like a child and Travis has to work

3. If I don't do something now, it won't get done

4. The worst of all, I feel even more like a slacker and a loser because I see my house slowly falling apart, no cleaning done, laundry piling up and no energy to fix it.....Then I still have to drag myself up and go to parent teacher conferences because if I don't I DON"T KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN!!

So for anyone who is curious...being sick SUCKS for mothers.
