Sickness

Ever wonder how when everyone else around you is getting sick and you're not? Then everyone else is better and you get what they had! I want to thank all the coughing, sneezing, snot running people I shopped with during the holidays who didn't use hand sanitizer, didn't wash their hands frequently, or sneezed into their hand and touched something. I greatly appreciate my immune system being compromised along with a cranky two-year old who has a snotty nose. I welcome my Gypsy Cold Care Tea and Vick vapor rub. My two year old thanks all those medicines that have now been banned until he's six so he still gets saline drops and a bulb sucker up the nose. I would like to know how anyone can do that to a two-year old and still walk away feeling like you didn't just suck his brains out and become the bad guy.

Yuck, yuck, yuck. I hope that you didn't pick up any of our germs but I know you probably did!

I've never done saline drops. I just let them tough it out, because I just can't face the fight.

Mean, I know.

Well we're in the same boat as you guys are. Only we have a NASTY cough!? Ben finally got a fever last night and now has a rash!? Poor kid, we are heading to the Dr's shortly.
I hope that you guys start feeling better and that Breck as least has a few brains left after it's all gone.
Love yah!
