The FLU!!!

So I decided to take a little break from life.....so I caught the FLU! I am pretty sure I got it from work when the baby sneezed in my face. He did have the Flu. I was sure I was dying! Friday I got up with the kids because Shaffen was sick. I had a little headache and stuffy nose so I took some tylenol cold and sinus. By 2pm I had 101.5 fever. I felt horrible so I crawled into bed. By 4:30 it was still 101.5 so I took some tylenol. At 5:15pm it was 103.3! I was so sick I had to go to the ER, the tylenol wasn't working. My skin hurt and my back hurt so bad I couldn't stand it. They tested me for everything. They gave me 2 liters of fluid and even though the swab said negative for the flu they are sure that is what I have. Today I definately feel better, I couldn't stand my dirty house any longer. I have been in bed for 3 days! Shaffen has been good, but doesn't really clean like I do. I have never seen Chocolate pudding in so many places. I am not sure what those boys were doing. I still have a fever, but the pain is not near as bad. I do not recommend getting the flu it is absolutly horrible. The body aches are so severe, I was begging to be put out of my misery! Anyways, I have a lot of catching up to do with school!!!! Just when you think things couldn't get any worse THEY DO!!!! ;) Thank you Nikki for taking the boys, I wasn't sure what I was going to do!!!!

AHHH Misty! I totally feel for you. I hate getting sick because my house completely goes to pot. Micah tries but it's just not the same. I hope you are feeling better and still taking it easy so it doesn't come back.

Sorry to hear you were feeling sick! I had a bout of throwing up at my parent's house last weekend. That's even worse when it's at someone else's house. There's definately lots of crud going around. I hope you're feeling better! :)
