I hate the flu!

I felt I needed to add a little bit to my illness blog from Sunday.

Noah woke up at midnight last night vomitting. He continued to get sick all night and all morning. Poor guy. He spent the day and night on the couch, sleeping as much as possible and sucking down tiny swallows of Sprite by mid-morning. He ate a few bites of a grilled cheese sandwich tonight around 7 p.m. (it was the only thing he wanted) and then back to the couch he went.

I spent the morning home with Noah while Chad came home and spent the afternoon. I came home from school with a tender tummy myself and haven't eaten much at all today. I do not want this garbage and I'm trying to rest as much as possible in order to keep from getting it.

Is it pathetic and wrong of me to say that I hope we get the ice that is predicted in the forecast just so we can have a day off from school to recoup from all this illness and flu in our house? I will continue to hope and keep my fingers crossed throughout the night.

I really don't want Elijah to get this and we are really hoping something happens and he doesn't. It's been several years since we have had flu like this and to be quite honest, I haven't at all missed it. Hopefully it will be over soon and life will return to normal.
