Welcome home, Mommy!!

Monday I left Don alone with the boys for a couple of days. I was going to a conference and I didn't return until last night. At work I missed a probation day, and two plea/motions days for the jury trial calendar that I am in charge of. My co-workers were trilled.

At home I missed Donnie's choir concert. As you can imagine, Donnie was thrilled, too.

Last night I returned home to find Don and the boys all in bed. Don had a migraine. Donnie had a headache, a stomachache, a cough and a fever.

Today I am home taking care of a sick Donnie. I had to teach him that if he is too sick to go to school then he is too sick to play video games. It's a hard lesson, but I think he will live after watching Star Wars a few hundred times.

Did I mention that my co-workers are thrilled again?

This is what my co-workers did yesterday to someone who called in sick a few days in a row. No, it's not a broom cupboard. This was a cubicle. I don't even what to think about what my office looks like.
