On the mend

We are finally getting better. The boys have defeated RSV on their own without a trip to the hospital, which we are totally grateful for. Unfortunately, Ben and Abby are now sick too and I feel that my ear infections have come back. At least the boys are better.

It has been a rough start for me working. The car would not start last Sunday and the boys had a dr's appointment that Monday which was my first day back. That morning we rescheduled the boys appointment for that morning at 8:15am and I went to work late. I got to work at around 10:30am and found out that my computer files were lost. I had a back up, but it was at home which did me no good. I did not get much accomplished at school that day. I was flying by the seat of my pants on Tuesday. Ben got the Saturn fixed Monday afternoon (which was a new battery). Abby and I had our first morning of getting up early Tuesday and I took her to school then went to work. I had a great first day making stuff up as I went along. I am so glad God gave me that gift. I also found our I was going to be evaluated/observed that Thursday. Only 3 days in with the kids and it has been 7 months since I have worked. Talking about jumping in feet first!!! Might as well get it over with. Luckily I have the best department head who helped me out and it turned out to be a great lesson which I will continue to use. My students seem pretty decent so far. Then we got out early Thursday and were off Friday for snow/ice. What a week. Not to mention we have been sleeping in the living room all week with the boys and up almost every 2 hours with them. Exhaustion!!! Glad we have had a long weekend to relax and recover. What a week!!!
