The flu!
We have all been suffering through probably the worst stomach flu we have ever had!! As soon as we think its over it comes back to haunt us. Its been a week now and we are still in pj's, drained and cramping like crazy! Luckily we all aren't sleeping in the bathrooms like we were earlier in the week!! It's so hard when you are ALL sick at the same time. It was a nightmare. It hit me the hardest which I was not expecting. I did get it last though so I was able to help everyone as much as I could. Brandon kept saying you already paid your dues with your crazy pregnancies so you aren't going to get sick, or even throw up or anything. I held onto that thought every time I felt blah and then it hit and oh my gosh! I don't think I have ever been this sick-- things I didn't think physically possible happened.I will spare you the gross detail!! I did lose 4 pounds in 2 days so that should give you a clue!! The boys are way better now and Brandon finally had to go back to work. Today is definitley a movie day in pj's and HOPEFULLY we'll be back to somewhat normal by tomorrow!!!I always have my list of things to do - us type A personalities are like that so to be in bed for days has been driving me crazy but when you are that sick you don't even care - you just pull the covers over your head and wish you will wake up and be all better. It did remind me a little too much of my pregnancies and all I went through and sacrificed. I shed many tears I kept thinking it will just be a few days and thank goodness I'm not pregnant!! I could not do it again. 6 months is too long to be that sick.As Karen said we too need a Brady Bunch Alice to clean up this enormous mess and the laundry oh my goodness!!!I can't wait until my house smells fresh and clean again! Anyway hope you are all well and I hope if you did get it that it wasn't too bad!!

We had the same thing over here. It kept coming and going. I've never experienced a flu quite like it. My skin HURT to be touched. So weird, I can't explain. I am SO done with having the flu over here. It has been constant over the last year or so.
