Jinxed?

Whoa, did I totally feel like crap this morning, just a mere 3 hours after posting my blog stating that I was quitting. Amberlea woke up dry heaving. While I was laying on the bathroom floor rubbing her back, I was thinking to myself...oh no, that wasn't what I meant by needing a break. After the 4th round of heaving, I called in sick sometime after 6. I got Rachel up at 6:30 and headed to school for a few minutes to get some lesson plans on paper. I was hoping to stay home with her for the morning, then take her to Tim's for the afternoon as long as she wasn't still heaving. I raced home, hoping Amberlea hadn't woken up and started in again. Upon arriving home, I could tell something was up with Rachel. Pretty soon she was racing for the bathroom too, and the heaving continued with her. So I kept them both home, and little brother seemed fine. They were somewhat settled by noon, so they went to Tim's and I headed to school. I battled a terrible headache all day, likely caused by the fact that I was still awake around 2am, then was woken back up at 4...also didn't eat lunch because I ran out of time. So it turned out to be a long afternoon, but at least I was ready for the open house tonight. Poor Tye was at school for nearly 12 hours today. I hope that is the last time that happens for a long time.

So as of now, they are both feeling up to going to school. Tomorrow is a special day, as Amberlea's class is doing the crowing of Mary and she also has a banana split party for her multiplication tables. The girls and I are all looking forward to the 8th grade play that we missed today.

I'm headed to bed.
