Reggie is sick. Gabriel is sick. Jacob is sick. All three are going to the doctor today. Reggie is really sick--he has had a fever for 2 days and stayed home from work. Gabriel is sick without a fever and stayed home. Jacob (my trooper) went to school with a bad cough and runny nose. I, on the otherhand am not sick--yet. I am going to get some Lysol for the house and spray everything in sight. I do not want to get sick. Ever since the kids at school started to get the flu, I have been spraying my classroom down. I have also been taking 1000 mg of Vitamin C everyday with the hopes that I will be okay. My students asked me today if I "was ill." Okay, how do you define this word? Ill usually means sick, but that is not what they meant. They wanted to know if I was irritated. Why not just say that? Then, they used improper grammar. HELP. Yes, I am ill darnit.
These pictures were under the word "duh" in google. I feel like sometimes we are surrounded by "duh" people--don't you?
My students wrote an essay (that we have been working on for an entire week). The essay (with research) is to be typed today. If they did not finish on Friday (they had 90 minutes to write 1 1/2 pages and I gave them an outline), they needed to finish over the weekend. Did they? Of course all of them are perfect and finished--NOT. They don't understand why I am "ill". You tell me.
So, I will leave you with this prayer...Lord, please help me to not be "ill"--sick and irritated. Amen.

I'm so sorry everyone is sick!!!! Hope y'all all get better soon!
I was reading your entry to Michael, and he said, "I sure wouldn't want to be in her class when she is ill or irritated!" :)
Keep popping that vitamin C and know that we are all praying for you.
