Maderville

I failed the scratch test.
I woke up this morning feeling like you know what. Mike was quarantined to the other side of the house last night and I was on the other side with the bug. I felt it coming on last night...as I posted...and I could tell it wasn't going to go away. My friend, Charlie, saved our lives by taking Landry for most of the morning and all of the afternoon. OMG...I just figured out that she had her for 8 hours!!! I really appreciate her boys, Julian and Oliver, helping their mama with Landry. The are going to be REALLY good big brothers!!! We went to the doctor and we don't have the flu but we have something God aweful. We each got a Rocephan shot(yes, it hurt a stinkin' whole lot), took a breathing treatment and was prescribed a Z-Pak and an inhaler- of course it was a Glaxo-Smith Kline product!

The fine folks in Manisha Sethi's office took care of us and even gave me a surgical mask so I could hold Landry for a few minutes. Mike is doing better than I am so he is taking over duties for tonight so I can rest. Being a Mom AND sick doesn't jive too well. No one told me that I wasn't allowed to get sick EVER again when I had kids. What gives?! Do I still feel like crap? Yes, I do but I am on the road to recovery.

I know, I know. It looks like I am impersonating a nail technician.
