Yikes. I officially got my first sickness of the school year. Tues of last week I started to get a little cough/sore throat... nothing terribly bad! By Thursday I had no voice. Nada. Zilch. It was bad! But I figured I could teach through it. Turned out to be harder than I thought! 18 five and six year olds with a teacher who couldn't talk.... a little chaotic.
That night my college BFF Rebecca was flying into town and a bunch of our sorority sisters came over to my house to eat and gab. It was sooooooooo nice to see their beautiful faces and catch up. But.... it was a little hard with the no voice and feeling crappy. Oh well.
Friday I probably should have taken the day off but I decided not to. We had a big ice cream social for the staff that I needed to prepare for and I genuinely love my kiddos and didn't want to be away. By the end of the day I was death run over. After Nick and I ate some dinner I crashed and burned. Literally by 630 pm. I didn't wake up until after 8am the next day. I proceeded to sleep the day away. (Thank goodness Nick is super dad!) I woke up to do grade some reading tests and do some school work.... then back to bed it was.
I woke up this morning and decided to hit up the Urgent Care. I just couldn't do deal with the crappy throat/voice! So ... walked out with a Z-pack.. Sooo should have done this sooner! Anyways- I have another busy week in first grade , not to mention picture day tomorrow! So fingers crossed I start feeling better soon!!
Is anyone else as excited as I am for fall? I soooooooooooooo want it to be October. Lots to look forward to: football, cooler weather, trips to the zoo, our annual pumpkin carving party, Halloween, etc!
Love to you all!

Hope you're feeling better! I'm SO ready for fall too :)
Glad your feeling better! you should post some tips you do (if you do any) to hoard away sickness. I am sure there are so many germs in the schools.
