The Plague and Other Fun Times

Have you gotten the Great Respiratory Virus of 2008? Oy! I'm still coughing. It wasn't the flu I had, it was this respiratory bug. It tore through the house--first me, then Josie, then John, then mildly, Lou. Lou got it the least, Josie and I got it the worst (toss-up who had it worse, we were both in bed with fever and chills for days).

Now, just as we're getting over it, come to find out John has tonsillitis! I didn't even know he still had them. So on the 10th, he gets to go in and have them yanked. Some people are saying easy peasy no problem (it's day surgery now), other people are saying OMG prepare for the worst 2 weeks of your life. I think I'm going to hope for the best and prepare for the worst--stock up on lots of ice cream and popsicles and broth etc, make sure the bedroom is clean and pleasant (too bad the TV doesn't work too well up there), etc.

It made it's way thru here a couple months ago. Glad all is on the road to recovery. Well, except your hubby. But soon he will be!
