Da Pain! Da Pain!

Just dropping in-because I can.  This virus that started it's attack in my home some two and a half weeks ago is still here, though weakening considerably.  First the two olders had it before they left for Phoenix, then dd3 got if for three days, then ds who was down for 8 days and is still coughing, but up and about.  Next was our little visitor-Tony.  He had it for about four days and still shows symptoms some evenings. Then of course there's me.  The biggest baby of the bunch.  It's going on day six and I broke down and took some ibuprofen, because the aspirin wasn't touching the pain in my head and ears.


Looking around at my home, I really need to get better.  Everyone has been trying to keep up, but perhaps they just don't know how to do it?  I've decided that I need to be more specific when training the young ones to do this work.  I feel like I've failed in this area.  Four children should be able to take care of one house.  They have been trying and I do appreciate it, but when I look out at everything that needs to be done, I think I'll just go back to bed.


Time for a tissue.


Oh-guess what happened while I've been sleeping?  Spring came!
