Normally on Thursdays, I post reviews. I have some great ones that I want to share with you too. However, they\u2019ll have to wait. I\u2019m sick (and physically tired). When Michael\u2019s teacher mentioned that he\u2019d probably be \u201csick for a year\u201d (as he adjusts to a \u201cchild group setting\u201d), I didn\u2019t realize that the rest of the family would be too \u2026oh well! <\/p>\n

So, I told my husband that I\u2019m taking a \u201csick day\u201d. The only thing about that is that stay at home moms don\u2019t really get sick days. I won\u2019t be doing much blog\/writing work but I will still be:<\/p>\n

-caring for the kids
\n-finishing the laundry
\n-doing the four hour kid school commute
\n-cleaning the entire place for visitors that are coming over
\n-cooking
\n-etc., etc., etc.
\n
\nI need to figure out how to include some real sick days in my \u201cmommy\u201d contract\u2026<\/strong>
