I got a call from V's sitter today that she was throwing up and i needed to come get her. Of course, i was in my car within 5 minutes...now that we're home, she's fine. not puking, acting normal, not eating alot, but ate a bit...i have to keep her home tomorrow too..sitter rules. Let me just say that i WANT to be home with my daughter, especially when she's not feeling well. But for all you working moms you will understand when i say it is HARD to be a working mom when your kids are sick. You only get so many days off work and they have to last all year. The sitter calls in for her sick time (there goes one of your days.) it snows to hard and the sitter closes (there goes another day.) a week later it snows again (another day of time off) vaughn throws up (another 2 days)....leaves no time for the fun days off or for sick time for myself. you are not only juggling your own life but your baby sitters and your childs. Its difficult. Times like this I wish even more I could stay home. Im not saying I want to stay home and not work, thats not me, i could never be okay without having my own money, without having money that i had brought in and could spend and use without feeling i was using someone elses money, its just not me....but I TRULLY wish i could work from home. Eventually, i will be able to...i just hope its before V gets too big.
On another note. I am feeling HORRIBLY FAT! My p90x was supposed to be here today, but its not....so i made one more fattening meal (homemade enchilladas and cheezy rice) and tomorrow it better be here. I am committing(in front of anyone reading this, if anyone does read this...i have no idea anymore) that I am commiting to 90 days of this program. I am going to do the eating program, AND the 90 minute workouts everyday. I will do it! If it works like it says, i will be a fit mama in no time. I am excited to get started, but nervous as it is a VERY EXTREME workout and im not even used to a mild one. We'll see. I will keep you all posted:) MAYBE with pictures of my progress if i can stomach (literally) putting them on here! Eek. that would be motivation though no?
Classes started up again today. I will be glad when this 2nd degree is finished. Hopefully next summer, we'll see. Then I WILL be able to work from home at least part time. i would be ok with part time. Its another full load this semester. None of the classes I actually NEED for the certificate, but i ahve to be full time for this one semester before I can get into any of hte 3 i still need. Sigh, what a busy few months i have ahead of me.
I gotta go tend to my sick one who is currently loving on a popcycle and her micky mouse:)

oh my goodness! a bunch of guys did the p90x challenge at phillippes work. most of them dropped out! it's extremely hard! Good luck! hope it's easier for you than it was for them!
you can always bring v over here if it is because of roads or something other than sickness. you know i don't mind! if it's on a school day, i'll just put gabi in the middle and take v with me. but if the roads are bad enough for sitter, she wouldn't have school. just saying, call if you need to.
