The sun is out, so today it's a better day. The ice is melting and the trees are constantly dripping. Pretty, but I won't be sorry to see it go. I long for Spring.
The only dark part of the day is that we now have the three youngest (13, 11 and seven years old) and the oldest son (24) down with the stomach virus. Might as well get it over with, you know? They fell, one after another, earlier this morning...but I think it's the last leg for youngest son. He had it earlier in the week, and I think he just got back to eating normal food too fast. I'll bet his stomach was rebelling at the pizza they ate last night. Chicken soup for him tonight...if even that.
Man, I'm tired. I realize I'm better, but the fatigue sure is wearing. I got online last night, just for a bit, and couldn't stay focused. Then oldest daughter gave me a magazine to read, and partly because of the food ads I couldn't read it (haha), but even that wore me out. Seems this'll take awhile to recover from, hmmm?
Not that there's anything pressing. Tomorrow, while my husband's at work, the kids who drive can run errands, and I can putter at my own pace. I'm very thankful we homeschool during times like this...sure makes life a bit easier. The only downside is that even though a person can lose weight with a stomach virus, it's never quite enough or from the right location, you know? My face looks a tiny bit thinner, but, well, that's all I'll say about that. :)
And last but certainly not least...thanks for the well-wishes. You make me smile.
