Family day? More like sick day

I was going to post about how nice this long weekend was.  It’s a holiday called “family day” that just came out last year.  We did get out for a date on Saturday for Valentine’s Day to the hockey game which was a blast and a long awaited engagement got announced on Friday too so the start of the long weekend was good.  But not the last half……    we all have the flu!  The boys are sitting at 103 degrees fevers, coughs and poor Carter threw up all over his bed stuffed animals and had to go to bed without them because they were in the wash. Cooper is fevering and coughing and hubby and I just keep asking each other what happened to this house?  We’re all hopped up on tylenol which is only taking the edge off the fevers but helping with the bone aches and hopefully we’ll all get some good sleep tonight and be on the mend by tomorrow.  Cooper’s been saying funny stuff in his delerious state and Carter actually sat cuddled in his blanket for over 30 minutes watching tv. He never sits for more than 10 without getting up and moving around so you know something is wrong if he does.

On a positive  note: we should all start to feel better around the same time *hopefully* so if we’re going to be sick, at least it’s together. We can all moan and groan, wrapped up in our blankets and sympathize and cuddle one another until we’re better.

I hope sickness stayed away from your weekend and that you had a good valentine’s day. :)

  1. Oh, I’m so sorry you’re all sick! Hopefully, the meds will help you rest and feel better soon.

  2. How awful, when there seems no way out of the ‘pit’, but I suppose we can all look back to situationas like this, and then slowly but surely,everyone gets better, including the ‘dried-off’ animals.

    Looking forward to hearing that things are on the mend

  3. Oh gosh how awful! I’m sendning you big healing hugs across the seas *Huggles* xxxx

  4. I’m sorry to read that you’ve all been unwell! I hope that you’re all feeling better now. Take care. xx
