Yesterday I stayed home sick from work. I had a 24hr stomach bug. Is it weird to be happy you had a stomach bug
because now your clothes feel loser? I am always the person who gets an illness that doesn't affect my appetite, so while I am home doing nothing, I eat. At least yesterday I didn't feel like eating and was able to ... let's say... purge some of the prior days food. Anyway while I was home I changed my blog header and forgot to hit the shrink to fit button. Unfortunately the picture is downloaded from my home computer so i can't fix it until I get home so y'all will have to deal with it for a little bit.
This morning I got a call on my cell phone from the school nurse. My first thought is crap Chatty has an ear infection and I sent her to school with it - bad mom (she made a comment on the way to school that her ear hurt .. first news of this so I wasn't sure if she wanted an excuse to stay home or not). As it turns out, Chatty was stung by a bee on the playground before school started. Poor girl! Nurse asks me if anyone in our family it allergic to bees ..
umm .. my mom. Nurse asks me what kind of allergy does my mom have to bees - what the heck??? Am I dumb or is there more than one kind of bee allergy? Anyway she was going to keep her in the office for a little while to observe her and give her some Tylenol for the pain. I spoke to Chatty for a minute and she seemed to be handling it well, I am sure she will save all the drama for Mr. ESPN and me tonight! I do feel bad for her though because they really do hurt!
Am I the only one who wants their Christmas letter stationary to match their address labels? I printed my letter (which had a typo Mr. ESPN didn't catch when I asked him to proof it) and address labels. B
ecause there is a picture on the left side of the labels it is hard to read the street number on some of them, so I wanted to reprint them. So I asked Mr. ESPN to pick up some two more packages. He couldn't find them at one
Wal-marts yesterday and today he calls me to ask what they look like again? If he can't remember what they look like how does he know they didn't have them yesterday? Then he asks me if he can buy some different ones that don't match ? UGH - needless to say I may be using plain white labels or addressing all of them by hand.
