F to the L to the U

August 30, 2012 by Elaine

I hate to have left such a “not so happy” post up on my blog for the last few days but you know, sometimes life is just well… that way.

I’ve been in bed since Tuesday morning with the dreaded FLU.

Full on fever, body aches cough, horrible, no-good, very bad FLU.

And the kids have been out of school because of Isaac, which ended up being really nothing for our area.  I mean, we have had worse thunderstorms come through before.

I know not everyone east of us has fared as well however, and my thoughts and prayers are with those effected in other parts of Louisiana and Mississippi, Alabama and Florida.

Also, I miss the sun.

I am trying to think positive though and guessing that I am going to feel better tomorrow.  The boys DO have school so maybe life can start to get somewhat back to “normal”.  Our normal anyway… And I am guessing that even Tim will be happy-ish to go back to work! 😉

(God bless him for taking care of me and the kids!)

And just because this makes me smile…

Hope you all have a good holiday weekend.

I’m going to continue to rest and recover.

    Having mom on the outs is never good! Glad that the hubbs came to the rescue! K is so sassy. She and A would have a heck of a time together. 😉

    I had the flu two years ago. Pretty sure I was never sicker. It was awful.

    Glad you have recovered.
