Seriously!?!

My kids [and my husband] have been sick off and on for around 2 weeks now...first it was Mikayla, and now the other 2...cough, fever, headache, sore throat.. And they keep passing it back and forth, despite my efforts to maintain a sanitary environment. I think they're at the tail end of it now, with a lingering nasty cough being the main concern. Of course, with them all sick, my social life takes a giant plunge. I haven't really been out of my house since Wednesday! And I absolutely need the stimulation! I think I have done a pretty good job of balancing my family life and my extracirricular activities, so as not to be bored by either. And when I don't get that balance perfect, the universe is directly affected. Ok not really.

I, too, have been fighting off this sickness for what seems to be weeks now. I haven't really had symptoms of being sick, mostly just sheer exhaustion by normal everyday activities that I could typically do with my eyes closed. I thought I was home-free until today, when I woke up with a massive head and neck ache that a steaming shower didn't relieve. So now, yet again, not feeling miserable enough to justify staying in bed all day [not that I would be able to anyway...*sigh*] and feeling well enough to be stir crazy, I am stuck inside my house crawling with sick germs with an aching neck and my head spinning from being so extremely isolated from the outside world.

On that note, I am looking forward to this coming week! I've got some things lined up outside of the house that will hopefully restore my aformentioned balance. So for now I will try my best to just relax today and fight the urge to do every little thing that I see needs to be taken care of around here and just rest up.

On tomorrow's To-Do list: DISINFECT!!!!

Bye for now.
