Since this blog has turned into a medical menagerie of sorts, figured I'd share that the stomach virus hit me after midnight. Yuck. I've not had anything like that since we had only one or two kids. Have avoided it. Didn't help that with the below-freezing temperatures and wind, that while I was busy losing my dinner, I had to hear the background sounds of ice falling out of the trees. Double yuck.
Just now took a hot bath since my joints and muscles were fussing at me, and feel more relaxed. Reminds me of that first hot bath you have after giving birth. Wonderful, but draining at the same time.
Honestly? I think I've been so overdone for so many weeks, and this is my body's way of recovering. I do think that illness has its place, hard though it might be, but sometimes especially for a mother, it's the only way we'll stop.
Finally, thanks for your sweet comments. I've met the most wonderful women through blogging, and I so appreciate every word. Truly.
