The level of nausea that is accompanying my attempt at sitting upright tells me this is going to be a short post.
A 24 hr flu bug has hit our house with a vengeance and knocked three of us off our feet. My dear husband is the only one to escape so far; mind you he got a flu shot so maybe that will keep it from being a four out of four.
Without fail it began like so many other illnesses in the middle of the night. I was half asleep when the sound of A being sick woke me at 1:00am. After changing sheets, pjs and spending a good twenty minutes with the mop I was able to get us both back to our beds.
Cue E less than an hour later. Sheets, pjs, rinse repeat.
Out of all of it what was the hardest to handle was the fact that we had had red velvet cupcakes as a treat that evening. Don’t think we will be having those again for a very, very long time.
I made it through to the morning called both girls schools and was set to deal with a long day when the vague nausea that had been following me through the night, which could easily have been attributed to my activities reared up and I officially joined the ranks of one of the sickly.
Ugh to make matters worse with the rain the other day I’d run to the garbage cans wearing my slippers. Yes I know not my brightest idea and as I should have expected I slipped and wrenched my back. The combination of flu and back is making me quite miserable today.
It’s only 8:00am and I need a nap.
