I was in the office today for the first time in 11 months, they had decorated, got me flowers and bath salts and posters stating I could never leave them again, I felt nice to be appreciated  . |

My parents are unexpectedly taking the kids with them to one of the Dutch islands for the weekend. Ds’ had a runny nose al of a sudden so they asked if I could home test him, just for piece of mind. It was negative. But my reaction was insane… I got heart palpitations, hot flashes, my hands were shaking and for lords knows what. I tested my self too (because I suddenly had symptoms), also negative. It’s been more than an hour and my heart is still pounding. I’m soooooooo over this.
I had a really good day elsewise, dd was a breeze to put down. My coworker was the sweetest and the weather is nice.

That was very sweet of your coworkers nam2013! I'm so glad it's Friday. No plans this weekend, I plan on staying home and getting things put back in place. The past few weekends we have had plans that involved drinking, so I basically lose a day. My house is a mess and I'm so exhausted from lack of sleep. Interview at 1, then I plan on getting groceries, headed home to relax for a bit before I pick Evie up from school. |

nam2013, I hear you. Cadence came home yesterday saying her teacher left early because she wasn't feeling well. I'm now worried her entire class will have to be quarantined or something, but haven't heard anything from anyone about it. So I just wait until pick up today to see if she was back or not. I swear I get more information from my kid these days then the actual faculty. Then its like whats the point of her going to school if she is having to quarantine every few weeks? Its just so damn stressful, but then you have to not show it too much or your kid will worry. You have to act like its no big deal and yeah, its completely normal to shove a qtip up your nose every couple of days. I dont enjoy this "new normal".

kim22 how are you and your family doing? tgrimes what was the state of your house on return ? Let's just say it wasn't clean but it wasn't terrible. Lol. He had done a load of laundry but just laid it all out for me to fold and put away. It was on the back of the couch, the dining room table and chairs and on the washer/dryer. Whatever. |

Wouldn’t it have been easier for him to just leave it in the dryer if he wasn’t going to fold it. Glad it wasn’t a disaster. |

Morning.
I dropped the kids off again because of bus issues. I hope our driver is back next week. Picked up donuts on the way back to have with my coffee. Just have plans to go to the gym and maybe the grocery store. I have laundry to do, too.

Good luck today mwhip! nam2013 my symptom anxiety had left for quite some time but now is back full force. Especially since delta is presenting like allergies, which I have this time of year. Yesterday Biden announced as part of the Covid plan to make home tests cheaper and had Walmart and Amazon as ones that would have Binax. I checked this morning and the 2 pack is $6 cheaper but now they are sold out everywhere! I want a stock of them just in case. |

I have enough time this pay period to end at noon but that’s not going to happen. At least they let us go back to edit our leave requests so I can adjust the hours I took on Tuesday and have flex hours cover some of it.
We have a busy weekend since sports start and Lola has booster shots and a playgroup. I’m hoping C can get some good downtime and some dad time since DH has had to work late all week.

How is H feeling? H tested negative for covid yesterday and hasn't had a fever since Wed night, so he's at school today. |

Yes. Definitely not like yesterday, but now I have some post nasal drip. 🥴 I know it’s just from it being so much cooler at night here. It gets down to the 50s now and I wake up cold. I’ll probably just do an at home test just in case today since we were in ATL last week. The mental olympics around this is too much. 😫 |

I'm here. Barely. I didn't fall asleep until 11. Woke up at 1 with a paralyzing migraine. Couldn't physically get up to get medication and couldn't wake Alex. So I laid awake until 3 and I finally got him awake and he got me water and migraine pain pill. I fell asleep at 4. Then got up at 6:15 for the kids I put on the bus. I took 3 ibuprofen at 7:30 and it's barely manageable now. I'm assuming this is from the vaccine. Hoping I feel better by morning. I have a PTO meeting to work on carnival later so I'm trying to decide if I ask my mil to watch mj and j or take them with me. We'll see.

Good morning! I Instacart-ed from two grocery stores and stopped at CVS on my way home from dropping off the kids. I had a 2nd cup of coffee when I got here, and I put milk in it which I don't normally do but I saw it in the fridge and it looked good. I took a shower and when I got out, it took everything in my power to throw clothes on and come downstairs.
I have a migraine, and I can't stop burping. I feel completely nauseated. I forced myself to eat a bagel, take two Tylenol, and a cbd gummy, and I have been on the couch since.
I literally have no idea what's happening.
I'm hoping it's that I didn't get enough caffeine in quickly and the milk just activated some thing weird in my system. I have to go out and get Charlie at one and Josie at three, and it feels like a Herculean task.

Post nasal drip is the worst, lahdeedah. A single Benadryl always helps dry it up for me. Oh man. @peach, I'm sorry for the migraine and interrupted sleep! |

kim22 how are you and your family doing? tgrimes what was the state of your house on return ? C woke up crying in the night again several times that his knees hurt. He screams when he tries to get off the couch and isn’t walking great. I talked to his pediatrician and she said because it’s coming and going, it’s probably viral but if it gets worse, take him to urgent care or the Er. I have an urgent care appointment for 7 tonight just in case. Everyone else is doing alright. |
