Countdown to the End: Day 8

Substitute plans usually include projects that the students
can easily do while the substitute can supervise. Students
are planting the flower bed in front of the school before
graduation.
I took this day off two weeks ago for a baby doctor’s appointment. The appointment time ended up being at 3pm after rescheduling multiple times. I felt really guilty about not teaching the first part of the day, but after throwing up most of the morning my guilt definitely went away. By mid morning I still couldn’t keep anything down and I was back to seeing stars. I called the doctor’s office and gave the details of my symptoms. They restricted my diet, and upped my nausea medication. By afternoon, I could at least keep down some Gatorade. I made it through the doctor’s appointment, and my husband was great in getting me what I needed. I was so thankful that I took the entire day off of work, but I couldn’t help thinking that this is the last couple days for my seniors and I’m missing it.


I know I made the right decision because I won’t feel guilty about sick days.
