Well, I didn't quite escape Erk's hunting trip without getting sick! Sheesh... When I got up during the wee hours of the morning on Wednesday I felt a huge gut ache coming on. I felt like I could puke when I stood up. I didn't think too much of it and went back to bed. By the time the morning came and the boys were up? I felt like poop. I tried going thru the motions, getting everyone up, bathed, fed breakfast, but I was feeling weaker and crappier by the minute. I debated for a while, but decided I better call in some reinforcements. Bless Mom and Dad's heart, they came to my rescue. Once Dad pulled outta the driveway with all 3 kids, I went straight to bed. That was 12noon on the dot. I didn't lift my head from the pillow until a few minutes before 6p when Erk called to tell me he was locked out. So I slowly sat up and came downstairs to let him in. Welcome home Erk and Happy 9th Anniversary - I look and feel like CRAP! As the night wore on and I had a few pieces of toast, I was ready to go right back up to bed. So at 8:20p, that's where I went. It was about 9:00p and bam, my fever broke! Off the sweatshirt, extra blankets and heating pad. And from that point on, I feel GREAT! I slept good, woke up at 6:24am ready and raring to go. Thank you Lord! Whew, I'm not sure if I could do yesterday all over again! I looked and felt like I had been run over by a truck.
By the way, Happy New Year! And thanks to all who called and emailed to wish us a Happy Anniversary - remember that day? There isn't one person who came to our wedding who doesn't recall the snowstorm!
