Well, a week later I’m starting to finally feel human-y again. Kind of nice since I’ve only been sick for a week!!! Urgh. Of course, now Trinity is sick. When we had this nastiness two or three weeks ago, she and I and Georgie were the only ones who didn’t get it. Apparently, the bug was just taking a breather.

When Trini got home from school this afternoon, she looked pretty zombified but when I asked her if she felt ok she said she was just tired. The kids went upstairs to go do their reading and homework and then came down to veg and watch Mythbusters. Trinity curled up on the loveseat away from the TV and looked like she was going to take a nap, which didn’t seem too odd since she had said earlier she was tired. That is, until Georgie goes, “Trinity’s asleep again.” Again?? What again?

He said she had also fallen asleep when they were doing their reading. Some kids this would probably not seem too extraordinary for. Trinity tends to come down telling me that she read longer than she was supposed  to because she just had to know what happened next. Okay, time to check her forehead! Yep, she was definitely running a fever. Drat!  Now Georgie just needs to get it and that will be everyone.

At least I didn’t go into labor while I had the big, bad flu. The midwife says that that’s pretty uncommon anyway because the body seems to know that going into labor when the mother is sick would be a bad plan. Oh, in case you were wondering, the baby seems just fine despite the fact that I barely ate anything for the first several days of being sick. He’s bouncing away like any kid who’s supposed to be coming out in the next two weeks.

That’s it for around here. Guess I’ll be missing church again this Sunday. I think I’ve missed three out of the last four weeks now due to either people being sick, me being sick, or me & George being on our date weekend (which happily managed to fall in between bouts of the flu). So frustrating!
