Well, I really think I owe a lot to my new friend Kim. She once again, saved us when we needed it the most...here's the story. (Justin did a good job too)Tuesday night I was feeling a little icky still. Justin and I were watching "The Biggest Loser" on TV (which is really a fun show, you should watch) when all of a sudden I felt SICK. So I went to the bathroom and vomited. (That is the last time I'll use that word, for my sisters sake, I'll use the big "V.") Anyway, so I went to bed and tried to sleep. It hurt to lay my head down, it hurt to breath, etc. So I got up after an hour or so and took a bath. Still having some trouble with "V"ing, then I started having trouble breathing. ***SIDE STORY: Earlier that week Kim had told me she ran into a lady she knew and her daughter had just died of pneumonia, and even earlier, Justin and I watch "Meet the Parents" a movie where a girl from our highschool played in and later...yup, died of pneumonia. So all I could think about was that I was dying and that didn't sound like fun. It was getting harder to breath and it felt like a big weight was on my chest. So I go get Justin and tell him I'm dizzy, "V"ing, and having trouble breathing...I'm off to the emergency care. He says, wait let's call Kim and she can sit with the boys and I'll take you. "No, no" I say, "it's too late, don't bother her, I'll be ok." Well, I got there safely, however it took FOREVER it seemed. They took me in, diagnosed me with pneumonia and a MAJOR sinus infection. She was feeling around on my head and kept saying "Does that hurt sweety?" UH, NO, I say, it actually feels FANTASTIC...don't stop. So instead of pushing on my head more, she gave me a HUGE shot and sent me on my way with 3 other prescriptions. Which of course they didn't have any samples of and I would have to wait until morning to get them filled...fortunately I got the shot. So I guess, I didn't get service while I was in the office, and Justin got worried...so he called Kim. Late, late, too late to call a friend, who had brought us dinner, taken care of us, let us live with her for a week, enough already, she's gonna stop answering my calls!...anyway, I am walking out the door calling his cell, when BAMM, theres a man in front of me. And it's Justin. He followed me home and put me to bed. Where I stayed, "V"ing and coughing the rest of the night and most of the day.
He had to take off work and take care of the boys. He took Cody to work and let him run like a crazy man...fun day for Cody! I am feeling better today, just not too good yet. And to make matters worse, Cody had a rough night last night. He screamed for lord knows how long...another ear infection Justin and I thought, so we took shifts sleeping with him on the couch...turns out it might have just been an upset stomach, because today, he gave me a big ol' present in his pants...and I mean pants. And seems to be perfectly fine now...so, guess who has it now? Yup, Justin...and it's all my fault! He's on the road and feels like crud. At least he got it after I got the medicine.
So needless to say...it's been a long week, no two weeks, no really month, actually if I want to be technically correct 3 months...it all started with that stupid ice storm and went downhill from there...stupid weather. Speaking of weather. Our weatherman is saying we're supposed to get a big ol' winter storm today. Possibly 4 inches...guess what I have to say about that? YEAH RIGHT!
Well, I'm off to go Lysol the house again. Here's an isnider tip for everyone...go buy stock in Lysol, Clorox, and Kleenex...you're sure to make money with how much we've been using!!! Love and miss you all.P.S. Thepictures are from happier days.
