ugh: part 2, the flu

yes, more snow.

yes, no closer to spring.

yes, on top of that we got the flu.

yes, all 3 of us.

yes, even avery.

yes, the puking.

yes, the "other thing " too.

yes, it was horrible.

yes, my mom, bless her heart came to help.

yes, she got it too.

yes, dad was here too...will he get it?

yes, most likely.

yes, it felt like the end.

yes, it must be, it has to be the end.

yes, the end of winter. the end of sickness.

yes, a little spring-cleaning for our bodies.

ugh!

Oh ick. Nothing worse than dealing with other people's ick when you feel lousy yourself. I hope it is the 24 hour version and you are all well soon! Thanks for you kind words on my blog...
