Hammer Head

Someone has released an army of little men with hammers in my head and when I find out who did it. . . it's not going to be pretty. In addition to the pulsing and pounding head, my throat feels like a swollen mess and let's not even talk about how bad my spine hurts right now.

After being kissed, hugged and breathed on by "Typhoid Mary" (aka Lil C) for a week, I knew it was only a matter of time. Plus, you know, Mr. BBM spent the weekend doing nothing but being miserable and daring to breathe his germs in the house too.

When I realized I was getting sick yesterday, I quickly cleaned the entire house. I washed sheets and clothes. I put away all the clean clothes. I vacuumed the entire house and then mopped all the tile floors. I can't stand to be sick in a dirty house.

Because I was having Mommy guilt, I also took Lil C outside for some sledding and snowman building.

This snowman looks the way I feel right now. . .

Here's hoping tomorrow is a better day for both of us.

    2. I’ve never made a snowman. Or, in this case, a snowhead.

    6. We’ve been cursed with a plague, too. It’s amazing how much you can be coughed upon, snot upon when you’re child is sick. Here’s to good health!

    7. Hahahaha. I don’t even laugh out loud, and I snorted at the photo. I mean, I hate for ANYONE to be sick – but the picture is priceless! KerSPLAT!
