But they do and I have been sicker than I have been in a long time! Last Saturday morning I woke up feeling like a head cold was coming on, but we all had somewhere to be. So, we all rushed out the door, by the middle of the day I had a full blown fever, aches, sore throat, cough, the works. For some reason when I am sick I try to convince myself that I am really okay and go about my daily routines without stopping. Finally, I had to give it a rest and get some rest. Thinking I could shake the sickness on my own, I decided I didn't need to go to the doctor. Wrong again, I decided to give in and go see my trusty old family doc. He took one look in my ears and at my throat and said, "You poor thing!" That's definitely what I had been feeling like! Now, I have some trusty amoxicillin in my system and hopefully we are on the road to recovery.
Thankfully, my kids have been great for the past five days, and no one else in our family has gotten sick yet! Here's hoping!!!!
UPDATE.......all of the kids are sick, but we think they just have colds, because they still all have lots of energy and appetites and all that good stuff, just runny noses and coughs. Also, in my sick post I forgot to thank Trav for all his help while I have been sick! I love you honey you are the bestest!!!

Linds I am so sorry! I hope the medicine helps! Nothing worse than trying to take care of kids while feeling crappy. Get some rest!
I am sorry hope you get to feeling better quickly, there sure is a lot of that junk going around here right now.
That is awful!!! I was just thinking about you and wishing I was holding Colsty right now. I will help you with the kids. I had no idea...maybe that should tell me that I am a bad sister and need to check in with you more. We need to see you guys soon!! Love you! Take Care!
I totally agree, mom's can't get sick! That is the worst. When I was pregnant with Bailey, my other two kids got the works of infections and when I took them to the doctor he offered to get me extra antibiotics for me "just in case." I seriously laughed at him and told him "mom's can't get sick." A few days later, I went through what you have been through the past week and was chugging my kids antibiotics for any relief. Long story short...I feel your pain and I am so so sarry for you. Get well soon!
Mom's shouldn't get sick. At least until their kids can take care of them (wouldn't that be nice? They could run you some warm bath water and get you a good book?)
The last time a doctor said, "you poor thing" to me, I started crying! (I had stress hives on the bottom of my feet, stretch marks that wouldn't stop itching, and a new baby with cholic!)
I'm so sorry! I hope you get better TODAY!
I am glad you decided to get to the doc! I swear once you get a few days of taking meds going, your world turns around! Hope you feel better soon.
Jessica is feeing your pain! She is down this weekend with waking pnuemonia, Mom's definately are not supposed to get sick!
I'm so glad you are feeling better!I can't stand when you are sick and I can't be there to help you!
