Virus

Boy oh boy 

Julia got sick

Like really sick

With a terrible virus 

That turned into croup 

It was scary 

She was having trouble breathing

After a long and difficult night, I took her the doctor  

She recovered fairly quickly with some meds, but then...

I wasn't so lucky  

I picked up that awful terrible virus 

I was sick in bed for days on end with temperatures over 100...

night sweats...

a painful sore throat...

and a deep cough that is still hanging on...

This is day 10

and I still haven't fully recovered

I can't wait to feel "normal" again

  

Danny was so wonderful picking up the slack around here

picking the kids up from school...

taking them to their activities...

(including a dance competition in NH for me...wow)

helping with homework...

making all the meals...
cleaning the house...

and on and on and on...

He has been amazing 

I pretty much just moved between my bed and the couch for a week

And this was KoKo last week while I lay on the couch...

I looked over and saw him enjoying my ice water

I hope he doesn't catch it next...
