For the past three weekends, we have been dealing with some "sickness" of some form or other!! Three weekends ago, Brianna woke up on a Sunday morning with a stomach ache and ended up having the flu! It had been going around the school and daycare, so it was probably inevitable that she was going to get it. Thankfully, it only lasted one day and not the three to four days that a lot of other kids were having it! I was pretty "trigger-happy" with the Lysol can, too! I wanted to be sure that no one else got it!! At one point, Brianna asked me if the flu would go away if I would spray her down with the Lysol!! Wish it was that easy!!
The next Sunday morning, I woke up with a nasty head cold. I couldn't breathe, my head felt like it was five times larger than the rest of my body. This thing lasted a whole week... nothing I took worked. The only way I got through it was with nasal spray and those Breathe Right strips that you put across your nose!! I've never used them before, but my "undying gratitude" goes to to whomever invented that thing!! Wow!!
Then the Sunday after that, it was back to Brianna being sick! This time it was strep throat -- which was the other sickness that was spreading through the school like wildfire! Leave it to Brianna to get both of them... but I am sure that a lot of other kids did, too. This was easier to deal with than that flu... just kept the fever and pain under control with ibuprofen until the antibiotics kicked in and did the job... hopefully this is the end of the sicknesses in this house for a while! Knock, knock, knock!! (That is the sound of me knocking on wood!...)
