Saturday morning, I took the kids swimming as usual. I almost didn’t as I’ve still been feeling sick but went anyway and got there halfway thru the lessons. Sienna’s teacher let us stay for the next class which only had a couple of kids in it anyway so that was good. We finished up and came home to a warm shower to clean off the chlorine and the kids played outside while I watched some TV to relax. Later in the day, I drove the kids up to their grandparents’ place and we jumped into their spa and had a nice relaxing time. Gotta love those spray jets!!
I bought some chicken from Coles on the way up and we had that for lunch. We left in the evening and headed back home. Bec has not been well either so it was good for her to have a break from the noisy kids anyway.
This morning I got up and made some breakfast then headed to Bi Lo to get some groceries with the kids. Bec was still feeling under the weather so she stayed home. We had a great time shopping (well as good as can be shopping) and I got lots of fresh fruit and some frozen veges along with other stuff more healthy than I usually buy. I guess that book I read of Bec’s mum’s really started sticking in my head.
The kids ran around outside this afternoon and I just rested. I got some lozenges today which numb the throat so that’s helping my sore throat. I’ve actually been sick almost all the time since March. I’m so over being sick but every time I’m feeling better, Bec or the kids get it and shortly afterwards I’m sick again. I’d like to take a while off work but my manager is already whinging at me and thinks I take far too much time off, so I’m stuck going to work while sick. Yay 
Unfortunately I have had quite a bit of time off due to being genuinely sick every time. The doctors haven’t been able to cure it. Just make it go away for a few days then WHAM! it’s back again. I’ve spent so much money on tablets and medicines, etc this year I’m sure the pharmaceutical companies are loving me. So now my manager requires me to bring a doctor’s certificate even if I only have one day off.
