My DS was sent home from preschool today because he has a runny nose and refused to have his temp taken by someone in the school office. So they call me and ask me to come take his temp. His class is on the playground when I get there. It is hot and humind here in TX today, so his face is all red and flushed looking from the heat (and this is how his face gets with the heat). So he won't let me take his temp with the one the school has (it is the ear kind, we don't have that one). So they ask me (very nicely and under the circumstances with the swine flu) to please take him home.
We get home and I take his temp it is 98.4. I knew if they had not been outside, I could have felt him and determined if he had a temp. He has had a fever maybe 4 times his whole life. I am so annoyed that 5 hours of time to get stuff done was taken away from me. He is so happy to be home and have his mom all to himself. What a waste of a perfectly good day. (sigh)
