Day 3

...and the sickness is still with us. Jackson has been sick in the past, but it has always gone away after a day or two. Well today we officially started day 3! He spiked a fever of 103 the other night and by the time he went to bed last night I had thought that we had seen the last of it. Unfortunately I was was wrong. He woke up this morning and his head and "trunk" was warm. Then, the cough started. I feel so bad for him because he looks absolutely miserable. I know that I hate it when I'm sick, but I would take this from him if it brought back my happy go lucky little boy. 
What really gets me is that I feel fine, but for some reason I am completely exhausted! I know that not making it to the gym in the mornings is killing me and definitely not replenishing my energy for the day like it normally does. I'm not sure what's going on, but I know that it needs to fix itself Mas Rapido!!! To make matters worse, today its supposed to be in the 70s! Perfect day to play outside at the park. Ugh. 
When I was little the rule of the house was that if you were too sick to go to school you were too sick to do anything. Mom, when does that rule start taking effect? I have errands to do and would love to go to lunch with Aaron, but I feel like its wrong. He's sick. We should be on Quarantine until he is well...right? I refuse to take him to play dates or daycare if he's sick because I want to punch people in the face for taking their sick kid to them bc it ends in J getting sick. How do the rules apply with running errands and me doing social things? 
 It was so nice outside I decided to let Jackson play in the yard for a little bit this evening. The fresh air perked him up a little=) He even managed to eat a little dinner, so yeah for fresh air! Here's hoping that he feels better tomorrow. This Mama has got to get out of the house!!
