Different IS the New Black!!!

Just another WordPress.com weblog ~ with a little crazy added in for fun!

Illness sidetracked me for a week!!!! YUCK!!

What a week it has been.  First my mother was sick with the flu while I was in the city staying at her house.  Not fun!  So after taking care of her all day on Saturday, we get home only to be waken around 2 in the morning with my daughter violently puking her arse off.  So not good!   And this was the type of puke that just wouldn’t wait for the toilet!  Therefore, I spend Sunday bleaching the heck out of all the bedding and surrounding area so we can get rid of this virus.  My daughter was down for the count through Monday and finally went back to school Tuesday! 

But low and behold, my son begins puking on Tuesday morning right before school!  Here we go again!  Bleach, bleach, bleach…  I spent the day taking care of him and making him drink water, which he didn’t see the value in!  That was a good time to say the least.  He was down for the count until Wednesday night, and yes you guessed it, it was my turn!!  I didn’t have it as bad, but I was out part of Wednesday and all day Thursday. 

The interesting thing about this flu virus, is that when I looked up 24 hour flu; all the medical sites claimed that there is no such thing.  Hmmm, really??  So why did this flu bug run the same course with my mom, daughter, son, and myself??  First puking, then fever, then fine 24 hours later.  No such thing huh?  They all claimed it was a type of food poisoning.  Which I find interesting since none of us ate the same thing during the week we were all sick!  Whatever! 

So, today I am in recovery mode and sanitizing the whole house again just for good measure.  I certainly don’t want that virus again.  It was vile.  And I felt like I just missed a whole week of my life!! 

So, I am in catch up mode with my posts!  Enjoy~
