Enough of the Sickies

We just can't seem to catch a break lately. Since I reported about Devin having the stomach bug, we now have the head/chest cold thing. Devin started with it towards the end of last week and it really threw him in a funk. He was moody, tired, and just not right. You could tell he was "off." By Saturday afternoon he was a snotty, coughing, whining mess. I felt bad for my boy.

He is doing better now, still coughing some, but not nearly anything like he was over the week-end. Now I am feeling like doo. My biggest problem is that my chest hurts. I feel like I can't breath well. I am coughing some and a bit of a stuffy nose and sore throat and very tired. UGH! I just want us all to feel better!!!!

How much more LYSOL can I spray? How many more times should I change the sheets? How much more orange juice should we drink?

And we aren't even close to spring....................

I'm sorry you guys are fighting the the sickies. We are too,and it sucks.

I know that it's impossible to keep kids from getting sick. If more than one of them is in the room, no matter how much you clean, you can't keep up with the germs.

Here's the funny thing. With Michael's latest cold I decided not to do the super crazy hand washing because it just dries my skin out and I always get sick anyway. This is the first time I haven't caught what he has. Weird.
