We're Off To A Not So Good Start

This new year is starting off with a bang at our house...we're all SICK! As a matter of fact, I hear my husband throwing up in the bathroom down the hall as I type this. Poor guy.

I woke up New Year's Day with a stuffy nose and a headache but thought it was maybe from having run the air conditioning in the hotel room all night. By the end of the day I was dragging.

I didn't get out of bed at all yesterday...too sick, and with a migraine to top it off. I did go into the kitchen at 12:05 am this morning to get some NyQuil, thinking it might lull me to sleep. Nope. I watched the sun rise.

The good news is that I only usually get good and sick once a year. Maybe this will be it for the year then huh!?!

The bad news is that I still have my Christmas tree up!

SO sorry--I still have my Christmas tree up too but I don't have any good excuse!

Mari said...

Oh no! At least you will have this out of the way early in the year! Feel better! :)

Oh, Linda...my heart really does go out to you. Remember...I've been dealing with a stuffy nose for several days now. I think I'm FINALLY feeling a little better, but I still haven't been able to sleep very well at night. I do feel your pain and discomfort and I hope you and your hubby both get some relief soon. Take good care!!!

Sounds terrible. You poor thing and your hubby too. If you only get sick once a year, then you are blessed and now you have a year filled with health.

I am so sorry Linda! I wish I could bring you some soup...
Don't worry I just finished about 45 mins ago taking down all my Christmas stuff. I have so much stuff...
I hope you feel better soon.

Oh my gosh, that's no way to start out the new year! I hope this is the one time this year, and that you're feeling much, much better very soon (and hubby too!)

Hi Linda,
Sorry to hear you are all sick...just no fun...
Love your word for the year..
Forgiveness...
good one:)
How's little Jake? Is he getting his wheels this year?! Don't worry about the tree...one thing at a time.
You might also want to try AIR BORNE...we use it when we feel something coming on and you can buy it over the counter. Just lots of vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidents in it. Give your system a boost.
Feel better soon.
Warmly,
Deb

I am so sorry. However, once a year and it will be done.... that's a good thing, right?

Oh Linda...I hope you all get well soon.

My son had the yuckies this week and he has been sleeping an awful lot...I think it's this wacky winter weather we've been having!

Hope you get to feeling better. We have been ill too, thank goodness no throwing up though.

Well, at least it happened over the holiday? Nah. It doesn't matter WHEN it happens, being sick is crappy no matter what. I'm sorry! I hope you feel better soon.

Awwww, that's terrible. There's nothing worse than throwing up!
I feel bad for y'all! I can so relate to headaches. I have suffered with them all my life.
Take care of yourselves....and don't worry about the Christmas tree. ;)
