The last couple of days has found me either laying in bed or on the couch. I came down with some sort of bug and it has wiped me out. I haven't been sick like this in at least 3 years.

Yesterday my wonderful husband took the day off so he could take the girls to school and watch my nephew. He even did the dishes!! I took to sleeping upstairs most of the day. When I wasn't sleeping, I was coughing my head off. Today, I made it to the couch and spent the day there with my Ellie. We watched Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, read a few books, and played with her new Leap Pad.
After the older girls got home from school, they went outside to enjoy this warm January weather and I couldn't stand not doing anything. So I decided to get up and clean up the house and make dinner. While I was doing stuff, I realized I must be crazy! On a normal day, I find myself griping and complaining because I have to do the normal household chores when all I want to do is lay around on the couch. Here I have the opportunity, even though it's through sickness, to lay around all day and I decide to get up and clean because I just can't sit around. Well, whether I'm crazy or not has yet to be seen but the house does look nice and I am feeling a little better since I got up and moved around.
I'm sure glad I didn't share this yuck with you....but it's nice to know you're not alone in your suffering :) Once we're both back to our normal selves we need to catch up!
