Sick Kids and a Sick Nanny

Saturday night the parents had a date night, which I highly encouraged. So I worked a split shift on Saturday, 10-3 and 5-9ish. The boys and I were suppose to go bowling and then go to Nickel City. Nickel City is an arcade place that uses only nickels. After bowling we began our way from Niles to Northbrook. We were on Waukegan Road and Logan got sick. At least we are only minutes from home.
We drove home and got him into the bath and set him on the couch. Within twenty minutes Logan was asleep. I carried him up stairs and he was so tired he did not even care he was moved. Lucas was not a fan of the situation but he was good enough to understand.
Sunday Logan felt fine in the morning and then crashed in the afternoon. He did not go to school on Monday. Luckily Maria does not work on Mondays. I was able to still go to the gym and I even gave blood that afternoon. I waited over a year to give blood again. I had to wait until August 15 of this year to give blood again. Now I only have to wait another 56 days to give blood.
When I got back from giving blood Lucas questioned me about what it means to give blood and why people do it. It was a nice chance to tell him how we can help one another.
Tuesday everyone went to school and everything was fine, but Tuesday night Lucas became sick. He ended up not going to school on Wednesday. That was not part of the plan. I had to work now at 8:30 instead of 11:30, which means no gym and no power nap afterwards.
Wednesday I woke up with a stuffy nose. And today it was worse. I think it could be allergies but it also could be a cold. I am unsure at the moment. Pray that I will be getting better. I have not gone to the gym in the past two days and I hope I will be able to go tomorrow morning.
I have Saturday off thankfully. It is suppose to rain, but if it doesn’t I hope to go on a nice bike ride, but I also do not know how I will be feeling. We shall see. ☺

Peace and Love
