A Tough Week

OK This week has not been the best week. Ben woke up saying that he was sick. I told him to go to school and that he would be OK. I went to work on Monday morning only to be called home at 9.05am to get the poor boy who had been knocked over in the playground and was running a fever. So I took him home. Tuesday he was still sick so we spent hours waiting at the doctors to be told that it was a virus. He was then off Wednesday. Thursday morning I told him that he may need to have a blood test to find out what was wrong with him and he said OK. I thought that the threat of a blood test may make him say that he would go to school. But he said that he just wanted to get better. I am cranky at myself for making him feel guilty for being sick and for questioning how sick he really was. I feel like a bad mother because I told him that I needed to get back to work. I don't want him to ever think that I put work first. I feel that I haven't been the best mother possible.

Anyway let's hope that next week is a better week and that I can work a few days. Not having family support around you is difficult in these times. I also hope for a couple of night without Ben in my bed.Anyway we all do the best we can.

On a good note I sent off a layout for Scrapbook Creations. So I will be published in August and November - Yippee!!! On an even better note I have only one week until I go to Pink. Can't wait-she is tops. It is not all bad as I am also going to Keith Urban in December as a birthday treat - Thank Mary.

Thanks for dropping in - please leave me a line.
Love to all
