we been sick

first it was little sister – viral infection – almost two weeks ago.

then it hit me friday morning – i’m assuming it was viral - but i suffered thru work, rested over the weekend, and did not want to call in sick & miss my birthday lunch on monday. (sounds silly now that i say it aloud)

so yesterday i woke up thinking – “it’s gonna be a good day. mind over matter…the worst is behind me…be strong…” only to find out that big sister was lying in her bed with 102 fever & shivering. she tested positive at the pediatrician for both flu types a & b, which i’m told is odd, but we have no choice but to treat it like h1n1. so she is on tamiflu, rest, & fluids – and i am busy trying to sanitize the house, washing everything, & praying that no one else catches it, or any other illness for a while!! and i am still not feeling 100 percent myself. we are typically healthy (knock on wood) – so this is catching me off guard for sure.
