To a New Week

So this was not the best week in the Krisel household. It started with me getting the flue Monday evening and was quickly followed by Callie getting it in the middle of the night on Monday. Needles to say, we spent most of Tuesday on the couch sleeping. And a good portion of Wednesday too. We were on the road to recovery in time for Mike to get it on Thursday. And then we were all so kind as to pass it onto Grandma Mary who was watching Callie this week. And she shared with Grandpa Stu. We thought Callie was better, so we were off to a new session of swimming lessons when she got sick in the car. And then a really long night on Saturday that had us a little nervous. She hadn't had a wet diaper in over 12 hours, but the nurse line said as long as she wasn't throwing up or having diarrhea, she would be fine until the morning. And then she threw up...a lot. But she also had a wet diaper, so our stress level went down. We did continue giving her pedalite in a medicine dropper because she won't swallow it otherwise. Every 20 minutes. Good for her, bad for my sleep. Fortunately she was a very a happy girl when she woke up on Sunday and was full of energy and wet diapers, so she did not need to go into the doctors. Crossing our fingers that she is really better this time.
All this happened in a week I really should not have missed at school. We needed to move kids into new classrooms because there are too many 1st graders. Starting Monday, I will be teaching a 1/2 split, which means I had a little bit of work to do. And it didn't happen. So I went in on Saturday and will be putting in some late nights this week.
So here's to a new week. I know it is going to be a good one!
