Sniff, sniff...
It is finally my turn...I'm sick! All last week, the kids were down with this crazy flu bug and I was able to make it through without so much as a sneeze. Now, I have this stupid cold that makes my head feel like it is going to explode! The best part is that because I am still breastfeeding Avery, I am severely limited in what I can take to combat the ever increasing list of symptoms...runny nose, cough, sore throat. You name it! Basically, I just get to let it run it's course and pray that it goes away soon. Bull says that it seems like every weekend someone starts getting sick. I agree - it sure seems that way lately. You can only hope that someone else in the house doesn't come down with it next. I guess we only have the next decade (and then some) to deal with this kind of stuff! I am so looking forward to the summer when we won't have to have a box of Kleenex in every room of the house.

Love the new blog! This is awesome. I hope that you feel better soon. We are bogged down with the stomach flu...Brandon is getting much better, Justin is still pretty sick. I feel your pain..sista! Get Well!

hi... sorry to hear you are sick. I have been thinking about blogging too. just haven't committed yet.
hey, my sis (from my dad's first marriage) is a nurse, and she gave me a couple home remedy's that you might be able to use.
For sore throat: mix 1/4 cup honey and 1/4 cup vinegar. take a tablespoon 6 times a day. I haven't tried this one..sounds a little nasty, but if it makes your throat feel better, it might be worth it.
for stuffy nose: chew 2 altoids as needed. its as good as nose spray. I did this one and it is a wonderful temporary fix.
hope these help...get well soon.
love ya,
linda
