Just a little stressed...

Dh is away until tomorrow night. Dd is sick, I had to take off work today to stay home with her. I already took off monday in advance.
She is so snotty and miserable and just wants to be held all day (which is kind of nice) but I can't get anything done. Also, I can't see how I am going to take her to daycare tomorrow but I have to work- they are going to be SO MAD if I call in again, espeicially the day before a holiday and since I have been off all week.
Not sure what to do hereChat Icon

Call Cheechee and ask to borrow some medised!

I don't know your situation, but what about a family member or a friend?

Can't you clone yourself and send your clone into work for you? Thats the obvious solution!

It's really hard when this happens. Bella was really sick last week and I had to take off two days in the middle of a HUGE project. Honestly, life comes first...do you get out early tomorrow?

she might be OK for tomorrow...

All our family and friends work. Dh usually stays home with her because he is self employed and it is easier for him.

I don't won't to send her to daycare for 2 reasons. First because she is miserable, and second because It makes me so mad when other parents send their kids to snot all over mine. so I feel like I shouldn't either.

I hope Kate feels better.

I would call your boss today and give them the heads up. Sometimes if you're up front about it and tell them you're in a bind and you understand you're out there's nothing you can do.

I find that the day b4 a holiday is usually quiet in the office they might not be annoyed.

I understand and agree...however, if she seemed in better spirits tomorrow I would maybe drop her off.

Honestly, Bella has had a runny nose for about two weeks, I would no longer have a job if I stayed home every time she had the sniffles. All the kids in her class have runny noses...

Fever, misery, diarrhea, contagious infections aside...

I have to agree. I work from home a lot so I can keep DD home if she has a cold for a few days... but sometimes, it just isn't possible. See how she is and if you think she is too sick - then keep her home. Family first. Chat Icon
