I'd just like to say that I've met my quota for sick days this year and I don't think a mother of 3 should EVER get sick. Kids just don't understand. They don't even think my sexy raspy, or rather "you sound awful" voice is cool. I used to get Tyler to fall asleep for naps while reading her but since this new voice has appeared I can't get her to settle down. Don't know what that says about my "normal" voice, but if it gets the kids to sleep I'll keep it.
Last night when I couldn't sleep I convinced myself I had pneumonia. I finally went to urgent care this morning and found out I'm just a baby with a really bad cold that should be gone in 7-10 days after it started. By then One of my kids will pry breakout with the chickenpox. Why they told me to take Claritin, an allergy medicine is beyond me. Our pediatrician called this evening and when John told him, he chuckled and said "Tell Melanie she can ignore that advice if she'd like."
I hate this time of year-cold & flu season!

You really crack me up. I think we both have had our share of illness!
We've got colds and flus coming and going at our house too. Just when I think we've wiped it out it comes back in another form! I do agree that a Mom should never get sick. It's the worst thing ever. I've been lucky so far this year (knock on wood)
Hope you get feeling better, spring should be here soon!
