Using A Sick Day Being Sick

Oh, how I long for a day off from work every now and then. There are so many ways I would plan to spend a day to myself. It is a bummer when I have to use a sick day actually being sick. Not only was I miserable yesterday, but I also kept thinking of all the things I would love to be doing. At one point, I even tried to convince myself to drag my aching bones out of bed and go get some things accomplished. But sleep was on the docket for this day away from work.

Hearing that my kiddos in the behavior class I teach struggled with the day made me feel terrible. My goal has been to put a program in place that is structured enough to provide success for my students whether I am there or not. The staff in this class are fabulous.  I don't want to hear their day was so rough they wanted to cry.

Today they are predicting snow in our little town, and that should make for an interesting day. All kids get a bit wild when the weather changes. I guess I need to get up, shower, take some Advil and know that someday soon I will take a day off to spoil myself. Maybe that massage that Tanner keeps telling me to get will be in my future.

In Him,
Joyful
