Day 2 at home for Monkey man.

Monkey is feeling pretty cwappy.  The fever rears it’s ugly head off and on and his nose is like a fountain of snot.  When Duhdee called the teacher to let her know Monkey would be staying home again today she said she sent 3 students home yesterday with the same cold.  They were disinfecting the classroom when we called, trying to stop the spread of this evil virus.

The teacher also informed us that one of the assistants will be spending her last day in the classroom on Friday.  She has been given a promotion to lead teacher in another class!  We’re very happy for her but Monkey will miss her.  The class will have a permanent substitute for the rest of the year.  She will return to assist in the class in July for the summer portion (this classroom runs 11 months/year vs a normal school calendar year) so we’ll be seeing her again soon.

I am starting to feel pretty cwappy too, unfortunately, but I have closings this week so I’m at work.  Bummer.

What makes this a double bummer is that our new featherbed/topper was delivered yesterday and I was really, really, really tempted to stay home and just lay in bed all day enjoying it.  As it was, I retired to the bedroom at 8PM last night after putting Monkey to bed and surfed the net and watched TV in total comfort.   Our new, super luxurious, sheets should arrive today as well.  I may never leave our bed again.  *drool*

    poor Monkey. I hope he gets better soon. This does not sound like it is his week.

    Hope the bug has let you all get back to normal. It is really lousy when you are both feeling yucky. Hopefully Duhdee won’t get it.

    Thanks everyone! Monkey was feeling well enough to go to school, his energy level was through the roof this morning. I hope to feel the same way tomorrow, lol.
