four out of six
...of us are sicksicksick. It started last night with Mom and me, and then today Dad went down and now C is starting to. I think it's only a matter of time before we are all incapacitated by this terrible bug that sucks away all our energy and makes our bodies do unmentionable things at all hours of the day and night. SOS! SOS! Send soup! Send fuzzy pajamas and slippers! Send people to empty our storage unit, which must be emptied by the thirty-first and there's a very cold, wet storm slated to last through the twenty-ninth, while T does not have Monday off! And for pete's sake send someone to do laundry or we are all doomed!
Me? Hyperbole? NEVAH. (Just in case you wondered where C got it. You didn't wonder? Oh.)
But seriously, ohmygosh I haven't been this miserable in YEARS. Ugh.

=( I am so sorry.

Ohmygosh we are doing the same thing here, starting Christmas evening. And speaking of said day, can that pretty pretty please be considered an acceptable reason for why I did not get ahold of my very dear friend on HER BIRTHDAY to wish her a happy one? I am so, soooooo sorry I missed that. At one point in the night I was up with a barfing boy and realized what I did, and felt absolutely awful! I'm so sorry to hear you guys are going through this too. Will be praying that you all feel better SO soon and get everything done that needs to get done.
Love you!(((hugs)))

Deb, I hope that's just a sympathetic "sorry" and not a guilty one. You do not need to apologize! Heck, with incubation times and all, it's actually pretty likely that if we passed it to each other, we did it at my birthday party, when none of your kids had exhibited any symptoms yet. NO GUILT ALLOWED. (Anyway, I would rather be sick now and have seen you all on Christmas than have missed you on Christmas and not been sick.)

Susan, no worries. We spent a good part of the day gazing at that picture of all FIVE of your beautiful children and wondering how you get anything done AT ALL. Are all of you sick? And you are not yet fleeing for the hills? ((hugs))

TOTAL GUILT RIDDEN! and totally sympathetic. =( I am going to go cry somewhere now.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that! I hope it's over with soon-- in time for the storage unit deadline. Maybe some of the family won't get sick.

I'm sorry. :( I hope you feel better soon.
I got a Nikon (Coolpix L11) for Christmas and thought of you. :)

My whole office came down with horrible sinus headaches today. Jason did last night and then I did today as well. I hope it doesn't get much worse. I think it might be the wind. It's been very cold and windy here. If it rains, it very well could snow.

Sorry for taking so long to get back here....I've been, well, you know. :) No, it hasn't been all of us. Only three out of seven so far, which are relatively good odds but enough to keep me on my toes and praying that it stops in it's tracks. And thankfully *I* haven't been sick, just taking care of those who are. :)
How are YOU guys doing now....?

Ha ha - obviously I didn't catch your latest post that answers my last question. SO glad you guys are all well!!!
