STILL Sick.

Yes, the virus rages.

Nine days and counting for me. I was at Urgent Care Sunday for a horrible, horrible cough and difficulty breathing. I was worried this was turning into bronchitis or, even worse, pneumonia. As of Sunday this is a bad upper respiratory infection. I was sent home with antibiotics and an inhaler. I thought I was improving until Tuesday hit. I started running a fever and the evil cough is back.

Y's been dealing with his version of the evil virus since last Thursday. The day before a four-day weekend for him. Four-day weekends RARELY happen in his job. One of his managers was very generous giving the team an extra day off last Friday. Guess how we spent our long, four-day weekend? Yep, in bed. Sick.

The Little Miss? She's great. Still a bit congested but running at full speed, meanwhile, Mom and Dad's tanks are running on empty.

I announced tonight that I was DONE. OVER IT. I've had ENOUGH.

We'll see if the powers that be agree with my proclamation.

In the meantime, enjoy a picture of our little beach bunny from our recent trip to Florida to celebrate a 90th birthday (Y's grandmother) which I will blog about once we're recovered.

We're sick

No, not in the head! Although some days some might say that's questionable.

The Little Miss is one miserable baby. Beginning Saturday about 7pm she began vomiting. Thankfully, she was in the kitchen on the tile floor when it started but jeez, she was prolific. Fever hit about 10pm. Vomiting continued off and on through the night. We couldn't give her any Tylenol or Motrin for the fever as it only came back up. I had zero sleep Saturday night. Sunday was spent with her in our arms fighting the fever, trying to keep her hydrated. Today, no real fever but she's still feeling really crummy. Very tired. And of course I now feel like I'm getting a cold or something.

She was to have her 18-month well-visit Tuesday. When I called the pediatrician's office to reschedule, they convinced me to keep the appointment since well-visits were so booked and not being scheduled until the end of June. If The Little Miss is still not well I guess we'll cover it at her well-visit, if she makes a turn-around today then I guess she'll be miserable from vaccinations!

Fun times in our household!
