For the past week we have been reliving the illness which struck us on Thanksgiving. You’d think with my quitting smoking nearly two months ago that I’d be less susceptible to the seasonal crap going around right now. All I have to say is that I hope we get some kick-ass immunity from all this sickness this year so that next year we can be looking back on this laughing. A mom can only hope!
I can’t blame preschool this time around for our bout with the sickies, but rather the hospital where I worked extra last week seems to have been the culprit. My couch has been my best friend, and it has taken all of my will power just to drag myself up to my bedroom to sleep for the night. Eddie has been a miserable wreck, which means we have regressed back to the nights of waking every two hours.
“This too shall pass” has become my mantra.
Hey, on a good note I found a $20 bill in my wallet today that I didn’t know I had. Covers the cost of all the medicine I bought yesterday.
Mama so needs a vacation right now. Somewhere warm, tropical, and quiet. Who’s with me?

I could use a great vacation myself this time of the year. I think we all get stressed around the holidays.

It’s crazy-hot down here in Orlando, but I have a cough, too, so you might want to stay away. Though I’d love to have you! I’d kick Patrick out and you can bunk w/ me!
