My son gets sick every now and then but his fever today is 103! His whole body is like a heat rock and his cheeks are rosey red. He is coughing and throwing up after he coughs.

I took him to the doctor yesterday and had such a hassle getting to see our regular physician. They said , "she leaves at 11:30 but we can squeeze you in at 11." Ok, we get there at 11 and waited until nearly 12 just to see her. Then we only see her for less than 5 min. and leave with no prescription because he only has a viral infection and not a bacterial one. It was a little frustrating but I do not trust any other doctor.

Is it just my imagination or is everyone grouchy and combative? I find myself running into so many angry people or people that just want to start a fight. At work, co-workers are angry, upset and crabby. My boss is on the war path and now thinking of telling us that we are only allowed to take ONE sick day per month. How dumb is that? If you have the flu, tonsilitis, oral surgery or other minor illnesses you are only allowed to take ONE day. Um.. when I last checked my union contract I saw no such thing. So unless you plan on going against the whole union and union employees I would suggest you keep your idea(s) to yourself.

I should have asked for combat boots and gear this year because the crap is pretty thick!
