School Lunch Is Making Me Sick!

No, really...one of those tiny little darlings sprayed me with cootie virus and I'm sick as a dog!  But the school doesn't have a substitute substitute assistant cook; I'm stuck.  I have bundled myself up...dosed myself with everything I can find that says: Cold Remedy and put on a super-dooper surgical mask, double gloved after scrubbing my poor hands raw and applying hand sanitizer because I will continue onward and upward to feed the tummy's of the fresh young minds in trusted to me.  In the meantime I have not made it out to the garden since Friday...I put my husband in charge...I have a counter full of tomatoes, peppers, squash and basil...oh and lots of eggs.  I need to either cook or dehydrate his harvest, or I'm going to end up feeding everything to the chickens.  Now, I'm going to take a hot bath with eucalyptus bath salts and go to bed...I will get back to this blog when I feel like a human again...

Hope you are feeling better soon. Remember, if you get a fever, it is actually there to help you get better.

Oh, no! You're in a land of new bugs, and it looks like one of them got you. I'm so sorry! I hope you beat it quick, and are back to normal in no time.

Ugh, summer sicknesses are the worst. Doubly so because there is always so much to do! You cannot help but curl up on the couch and feel guilty about not doing anything.

Hope you feel better soon. Those parents should be honored that you are enduring so much to feed their children!
