It has been one thing after another chez Badger.
This week’s crisis: stomach flu.
I started feeling queasy Monday evening. I lay in bed clutching my gut ‘til 12:30am and hoping the nausea would go away, but alas! (blech!) I was up the rest of the night sick sick sick. Sick. SICK. I crawled out of bed about 8 Tuesday morning and informed Badger-boy, who – bless him – promptly got up, packed his own lunch, and walked to school. I stayed in bed all day, minus the multiple trips to the bathroom (blech!), and was still there when the kid got home at 3:30. He managed to rummage through my purse and find enough cash to order dinner (clever little thing, eh?). A couple of friends happened to call, and Badger-boy got one of them to take him to the grocery store for juice and tea.
I’m feeling much better now, although I haven’t been brave enough to try to eat anything solid yet.
Gawd, I hate being a single parent. But I am so thankful for having such a good kid and such good friends.
