Pet Peeve

As I was driving to and from work yesterday I got to thinking about pet peeves. I started thinking about all the things that could be my pet peeves and then thought about what my pet peeves are. For some people they get annoyed when people pull out in front of them and then drive slow. For others it is people who don't use their turn signals. It bugs some people if certain colors are put together and others get annoyed when people run late. Or how about those people who say they are going to do something and then don't? Well I can deal with all those things but my BIGGEST pet peeve is people who bring their obviously sick children or themselves and expose other people and other people's children to those germs. I know kids are full of germs and winter time is the time for illness but man we have been so healthy this year dispite a new baby and a different daycare. It makes me so mad that all it takes is one kid who should have stayed home or should have indicated the suspected illness right away. If I would have known the kid had pink eye we would have just stayed home. Now, I am trying to wrestle my two year old to give him his eye drops for his double pink eye infection. Thanks so much for this fun--I guess I really needed this kind of one-on-one time.

Sorry that Ben has Pink eye...we had it before Christmas or so the doctor's thought...I don't think she had it though because there was no pink...I know it's annoying when your kids get exposed to kids that are sick, but sometimes you don't know if your kids are sick or not, and a lot of times your kids are exposed before the other kid has symptoms...try not to stress over it, they are kids, they are going to get sick...both Ben and Ada are past that age where they are so new you need to be super worried...think on the bright side, their immune systems are getting built up...When can he go back to daycare? Mady only had to be out for 24 hours...and she hated the drops...I feel your pain!
