The New School Year

This week has started off just about as bad as anything can start....The stomach flu is an evil thing. Especially when it is coming out both ends! I have been covered in "stuff" for about a week now and I am so over it! School started yesterday and I decided that my daughter must be kept out. You know how parents are, your kid is sick, next day you come to school, next day their kid is sick and then it is all your fault. And they don't do a good job at making you feel it isn't your fault. The parent will call you and trace back 7 days ago when the kids saw each and your kid must have touched something that my kid touched and boom! Your kid made my kid sick. So I opted to keep her out so I could avoid the obsessive mother who just can't admit that it is a bug and everyone is going to get it one way or another!

But now we are on day two and my daughter is still home. I can't figure out if she doesn't want to go to school or if her stomach is really in as much pain as she says. She told me to call the Dr. I guess she is still sick.
