Today started out crazy with the kids being argumentative this morning. Arguing over whether a kids yogurt cup should be kept in its container or put in another one for lunch so it doesn't explode is not my idea of fun first thing in the morning when I am feeling less than great.
Finally got the kids in school so off I went to my pain management appointment. The appointment itself is usually uneventful but the people I come across in the waiting room always makes things interesting. One time I chatted with a lady who pulled her kids out of school after the 10th grade, not to homeschool but to not go anymore. The nurses and I shook my head at that one. I got lucky today with few people in the waiting appointment and getting called back fairly quickly. The only thing I didn't like was getting poked at by my doc. Apparently it is still sore right along my back fusion scar line 8 years post op.
Managed to get some stuff done at home before a nagging headache hit. Unfortunately it still hasn't gone away yet. I am hoping soon or at least before the People's Choice awards. Basically have been having one of my in between days. My fear is that my headache is going to lead into something else like the flu. All 3 kids had a headache before it it.
Things are looking up though. Got word that my kids school is closed tomorrow due to forecasted extreme temps. This means I get to sleep in tomorrow before starting the battle of convincing the kids it is too cold to play outside. I am hoping to be able to enlist the kids in some work around the house before relaxing most of the day. The snow day due to temps I kind of get but I kind of don't at the same time. I know they closed so kids won't have to stand at the buss stop in dangerous temps. At the same time, I would hope parents at their school would keep them warm in some way before school. After tomorrow we only have 3 days left for allotted snow days with winter just starting. I am predicting now taht we will go over our 5 days again this year and have to go to the dreaded snow packets.
On a very cool note. Josh gave me a belated Christmas gift today which surprised me a tad. He got me an Anker bluetooth keyboard for my Kindle which I absolutely love already. It will make it much easier to blog and chat with people online without having to load my laptop.
Until tomorrow.
