Hi everyone! My husband and I were off last week and we kept our son out of preschool. It was a great week just hanging out together. My husband and I even had a couple of dates. We only take one week off together each year so this is a really special time. It just went by too fast and now I am really feeling down about going back to the same old grind. My husband works six days a week and is usually tired and crabby most of the time so it was so nice to have him in a good mood for a change. I have always hated Sundays and this one seems especially bad. I am going to miss my boys. Now Ethan will be in school and it is getting so close to winter and I am freaking out that he is going to be sick (vomiting) for the rest of the winter. See, this is what happens to me on Sundays.
Thanks so much for letting me vent!

LTNS, Jamie;) I am glad you posted an update. It was great that you had such a good week. Plenty of us have had that sinking feeling in our stomach when facing a return to work. Sunday night's can be a bummer):
Take it a day @ a time. Try not to focus on Ethan's vomiting for an entire winter. Good heavens! That would mean he was a very sick little boy. Put this fear into perspective. Allow yourself a few minutes to worry about it, then move on. Keep yourself busy in mind & body. Think positive thoughts if the fear returns. Here's some good info on how to beat anxious thinking:
Jamie, it sounds like a wonderful vacation!

Thanks so much for the support. I have a horrible fear of illness. Really it is just vomiting and I have had it since I was a child. It got a lot worse once I had a baby. Once winter hits the thought of illness consumes me. It is a horrible way to spend every day.

Thank you so much for the support. I always know that I can come here for some positive feedback and know that I am not alone. What a comfort!! I am still taking meds but therapy has been sporadic because my insurance does not pay for any of it and it is pretty expensive. Also, thanks for the web site I am going to check it out.
