Just when I thought it was safe.... the other kid gets sick. I know, you're all sick of my-kids-are-puking stories. (Trust me, so am I!) So, in lieu of details of how Jacob has spent the day puking (though he was fine when I dropped him off at summer camp this morning), I'll ask for your advice. What, if anything, occupies your mind and hands when you and/or your kids are sick? When I'm sick, I need to have my laptop on hand, a good book, perhaps some trashy magazines (Us, In Touch, crap like that). Ginger ale is crucial. If it's a cold/flu, I always sip a combo of ginger ale & orange juice. |

I can tell you what my fantasy is... laying in bed propped up on pillows, having soup delivered on a tray... reading some good mysteries and having an endless supply of gingerale and catching up on a few movies in the DVD player.
The last time I was sick in no way resembled that. :/

Yeah, I now have a summer cold and really miss quiet days sipping the sniffles away. I can't even have ginger ale now, since carbonated beverages are too hard on my band. Bummer for me!

I tried letting the bubbles subside, but no luck. Oh well.
Band is doing great now. I'm 32 lbs down!

When I'm sick, I tenc to nest...the house gets clean, laundry gets down, lots of cooking, and I watch DVDs while I'm doing it all. Usually, I'll make chicken soup.
Visit the
Honeysuckle Shop.
Buy early, come often.
