We are still sick. This is SO not fun! I swear that I have like the weakest damn immune system. My son, who is almost 6 months old, gets a VERY mild case of RSV and is already feeling a bit better after 3 days of REALLY being sick. And the whole time he's been his usual, happy, playful self. I, however, get knocked on my ass with this damn head cold, am completely miserable, don't want to move around, just want to curl up in my brand new HUGE bed, curl up under the covers and pass out until this damn thing passes. I'm grouchy, I'm irritable, and I just don't want to deal with people in general. (I've already warned the kids that unless they want to listen to me yell until I lose my voice, they should probably be on their absolute BEST behaviour. LeeAnna decided to stay the night at a friends house! lol)
The snow is once again disappearing.... but I'm not going to say anything about seasons. Last time I did, we got dumped on, so this time I'm keeping my mouth shut!
When I'm not feeling like crap, I'm immersing myself into this whole "Domestic Goddess" role. My house has been clean, and I've been making dinner (from scratch-no boxed meals) every night, doing everything a domestic goddess is supposed to do. I've even worked out chore schedules, so that I don't get overwhelmed with the sheer size of the task at hand, when it comes to taking care of this family. For example, with the laundry, one person get's theirs done one day a week. Granted, I'm doing laundry every day of the week, but at least I'm not doing 20 loads all at once. (And, I just realized that when you do smaller loads, you get done a LOT faster!) Today I did my clothes, tomorrow I do the baby's.
Well, my nose is all stuffed up again, so I need to go take some medicine, and since Daddy has the baby, I'm going to go pass out.
Until later...... ah ah ah AHCHOO!!!!
P.S. I never get into political topics, current interest topics, or typically hot topics if I can help it, but I did want to say that my thoughts and prayers go out to the husband and family BOTH of Terri Schiavo. She has been an insperation to this mother, and I am proud to say that not only do I now have a living will, but my final will is complete as well. And to top it off, I have even discussed with my family what I want done, so that there is NO argument and no debate over what my wishes would have been. I also want to say that I feel it is wrong the way the doctors, government, or whoever makes the main decision, it's cruel, and it might as well be considered a type of torture to starve someone to death. They could have figured something out that was a bit more humane than to let that poor woman waste away like that for 2 weeks. It goes against all things considered decent to human nature to deny someone nourishment or even the basic sustinence to survive. There HAS to be a much more humane way to let this woman pass on than the one that she had to go through.

I've been blog surfing and found yours. I just wanted to say i agree with your post script on the end of this post. I think food and water should be considered basic care, not extraordinary care, and that starvation is just cruel.
BTW, I hope you're feeling better. It's going to be in the 80's here, but there's so much wind everyone is having problems with their allergies. My DH needed albuterol again yesterday. Good luck to you!
