It is Thursday and I have been rallying all week. I've been so, insanely, tired and I have a constant heachache that even keeps me up at night.
I've been up in the morning getting the girls ready for school. I've had daycare kids, extra daycare kids, and a set of twins coming today for 4 hours as a favor to a friend who's provider is on vacation.
Why do I do this to myself? One of my daycare parents, who I love, is home for the 3rd day in a row now. I'm pretty sure in my 9 years of parenthood I have never had one single day to be at home, by myself, to be sick and rest. I don't have a daycare provider (obviously) and we all know I don't have a Grandma or Grandpa to watch my kids so I can die in peace.
I seriously want to feel better. I'm sick of having something to eat then feeling sick for an hour afterwords and I am definitely sick of this headache.
Let's just say that when I DO finally feel like myself again I'm going to get out of this house and do something fun!

I'm going to go ahead and assume that since you didn't give yourself enough time to get better, your misery is lingering. :(
Maybe YOU should take a sick day and have Bill stay home with Laila so you really can rest.
You're right, this is an unfortunate reality for daycare providers. I can bring my kids to daycare if I am sick, and I certainly do if I feel like I need it (and can!). I have definitely gone to work many times, but at least I have the option to call in. You really don't and that sucks.
I should say that if I really needed it (like if I am throwing up) then Bill would stay home from work. He also took care of everything on Sunday since I was up all night and still didn't feel well.
I probably could've used Monday as a sick day but I honestly thought I'd be better.
Am I a total pity party or what??!!
