Pink Eye at the Ranch

Neat! Seems Boom brought us back a little treat of conjunctivitis from preschool yesterday. Now three of four kids are suffering and I can't help but feel like my eyes are itching

I knew I hated pink for a reason :p

It is so nice that he had brought something special home from school for everyone to share.

Great sharing skills! LOL!

I feel your itchiness. My niece has had lice a couple of times this year, and after hearing about it from my SIL each time my scalp began to get that itchy feeling.

pahaha that smiley is killin' me!

Yeah..he'll share colds and pink eye, but should I ask him to let his sister use a blue Lego it's the end of the freakin' world...sigh.

EEEEEEWWWWW--you just keep your creepin' crud to yourself Jamie! Don't be bringing that to the crop to share, LOL

Are you working the GT $$$crop this weekend?

Yeah...between that and baseball my time was limited that's why I only have one shift here

But I'll swing in to share some lovin'.

It's spendy, but dang! You should see the album they are going home with and the goodie bags! Plus we're feeding you two lunches, three dinners and several kickin' snacks. People are diehards, man!

Yes the joys of sharing friendly "colds" and other fun stuff, we have had "pink eye" already twice now with a few of the boys. Havnt had any problems with lice thank goodness having boys and short hair its less likely so I will keep my fingers crossed lol.
Hope they get better soon

emarie803 · Wed Apr 30, 2008 5:08 pm

sweetpeas_mom · Wed Apr 30, 2008 5:16 pm

Sorry you're all itchin', but I'll take the Pink Eye over Lice any day!!!! I don't dislike much in this world, but I HATE LICE!

Mommybruno · Wed Apr 30, 2008 5:17 pm

Yeah, lice aren't very loveable. And don't get me started on crabs!

LOL Cassandra...I'm thinking there's a story in there somewhere!

ElsieB · Wed Apr 30, 2008 6:08 pm

That sucks, Jamie! I'm so sorry! I hope your itchies don't turn into the real thing!

4peasinourpod · Wed Apr 30, 2008 6:12 pm

that sucks. dang kids.

any chance he might pass it on to hubby, who can in turn take care of them?

Someone once told me that kids that have cleaner hair are at more risk of getting lice than kids with dirty hair because it's easier for the lice to get to the scalp.

I had lice all the time when I was a kid, so I like this theory.

Jamie - did you ever watch The Adventures of Pete & Pete? There was this kid that they called Pink Eye because he always had pink eye... You should call your kids "Pink eye." It probably won't traumatize them that bad, and it would be funny.

Suddenly my eyes itch too........

Joy · Wed Apr 30, 2008 7:46 pm
