Sick?? On a WEEKEND?!? It gets worse...

I have Pink Eye.

I've taught high school for 12 years, and could boast that "I have never had Pink Eye"... until Saturday when I woke up looking like a one-eyed pirate because my right eye was stuck shut.

On my weekend.
When my primary-care physician is not available.
So I can drive around looking for an Urgent Care facility as opposed to an Emergency room to get EYE DROPS (don't even get me started on health insurance!!!!).
I really didn't think that eye drops could cost $60.00, but they did.

So Mom--if you are reading this on your wonderful trip in Texas, then know this: you are invaluable and I miss you very much. :)

So far Carson and Mike don't have any signs of Pink Eye, but I've washed my hands so much in the last 2 days that they look red and irritated.

Oh well--you gotta have days like these, right? I am taking tomorrow off from school, No need to scare the kiddos with my right eye that looks like I'm possessed. On second thought...Nah. I won't do it!

Have fun with YOUR weekend. Celebrate the use of both of your eyeballs after you read this!
