The day started too early, as always, but that’s a Monday morning for you.

Unfortunately, MGS wasn’t feeling well last night, she had an upset tummy late and even after she…she still felt bad, mommy was there to rub her back and rock her to sleep. She had a few more bouts through the night, poor little bit. When I talked to GES, we both thought at first, it might have been too much candy and junk. Now, we know that’s not the case. Why, you ask? I’ll tell you.

After I kissed EJS and headed to the airport for my flight that had been delayed by 30 minutes, based on the text I had gotten last night, due to crew availability. They can only fly so many hours, so they weren’t allowed to leave until at least 9:30. I waited with everyone else for my turn to get on the plane, United Airlines, back of the plane. After it took forever to take off, the flight was uneventful. [I promise, I’m getting there]. But…since the flight was delayed leaving and so many people had connecting flights, it was oh so pleasant when we landed. First, it took forever to get to the gate, people were actually standing before we got to the gate, standing simply because we were on the ground, as if standing would have gotten the plane to the gate faster. Really people?

I finally got off the plane, about 30 minutes later, got my luggage and hopped in a cab, where the driver wanted to use the GPS on my phone, really?

I sent a text to my dad and sister to let them know I arrived, asked how things were and she was on her way to school to pick up EJS, who was sick at school. I checked on them a few hours later and it turns out everyone in the house was sick! Quarantined! GES and ACS had the shivers and EJS and MGS were sick. GES called the pediatrician and it’s going to be a long cold and flu season. It’s hopefully a 24 hour bug.

I don’t know how, but I got out of the house just in time! I feel terrible about not being there to take care of them, I would hope that if I had been there, I might not get sick, but I probably would.Sending them all good vibes, hugs and love for a speedy recovery!!! Please send them good vibes too!!
