W is for Wasted Day

It will probably be a short entry tonight since today was a total sick day, wasted because no one felt good enough to do much of anything at all.  The kids started to feel better yesterday, today they felt awful, and they were really cranky.  We did our letter poster, and we sang songs, read books, and talked about the sounds of W.  We talked about whales, and watered the plants.  Beyond that we mostly snuggled on the couch, watched Animusic and PBS, and played some video games.  We pretended to open doors in the walls, and pretended to ride on flying bridges when we opened the wall door.  Mommy had to use her magic wand to stop the bridges flying, so we could play with the other toys.  We had warm white milk and waffles for breakfast, actually one waffle since the waffle iron died after the first two.  We had wonderful yogurt banana cereal mash for lunch, and for dinner we had Western hash (hamburger, rice, tomatoes, peppers, onions, cheese all cooked in one skillet) wedge salad and watermelon smoothies.  We also drank a lot of water.  We read the words on my shirt, Me Want Cookies, with a picture of cookie monster.  That was the extent of our educational activities today.  I wish I had the energy I had yesterday.  Tomorrow will be better, though X is not going to be easy.  Thanks for reading, and sorry for the short entry!  I hope we are all better tomorrow.

  1. OMG don't apologize for the short entry!!! I'm amazed daily at the energy you have to write such long ones!!! Haha! I hope you guys feel better soon!!! There is NOTHING worse than a cold in the summer time. You're already hot and cranky and that just makes you feel like breaking windows. :-(

  2. Diana- Thank you for understanding. It has been a frustrating two weeks of being sick. They get better, they get worse. I get better, I get worse. Yesterday everyone was uncomfortable and cranky, tired and sick. It was a good day to veg. Today, after a good night's sleep, everyone seems better. Thanks, and I hope school is going great for all of you!
