Sick Day, Again and Assorted Ramblings of a Very Tired Mom

by Jodifur on June 17, 2010

Michael's still sick, we are still home.  I thought yesterday afternoon he was on the mend but last night he spiked a high fever that came with a middle of the night wake up call for me.  What happened to 24 hours of the pink stuff and done?  When are we done, strep?  Huh?

So today instead of pj's and movies all he wants to do is play on "his" computer.  Which is fine.  (His computer is actually Doug's old computer).  He is fever less this morning and I'm hoping this is the end and we can go back to school and work tomorrow, please?  Kay?

By now you have probably heard about the demise of DC Metro Moms and Silicon Valley Moms Group as a whole.  It is not my job to speculate the who, what, why and where.  And while I am sad and will miss my friends, I think and hope that there are new, maybe better ventures to come.  (I'm in the process of copying my original posts from there to here.  It is taking a while, but ignore them if they come up in your feed reader.  They are marked as DCMM.  Sorry for any confusion.)

The women who made up the DC Metro Moms became and still are some of my closest blogging friends.  And a special shout out goes out to my fellow founding members.  We were and are the heart and soul of the site.  I will miss you all.

But stay tuned.  I believe there will be an announcement of somewhere else to read soon.

Isn’t it weird how the fevers are always worse at night? When my children were very small and spiked high fevers in the middle of the night, those early hours always made everything seem more vulnerable for some reason. And maybe he’s still sick because he threw up his medicine yesterday?
Anyway, hope everybody returns to normal by tomorrow!!

Our son just got out of the hospital with appendicitis. His appendix won’t be removed for 8 more weeks, however, apparently to clear up any infection and other nastiness that’s still in there. You’d never know it now, but Saturday was a nightmare.

It sucks that Michael is still sick. Poor guy. :(
Moving over all those posts is a trip, huh? I ended up reading a lot of mine. It was kind of cool to revisit them.
