THE WONDERFUL AROMA

OF PUMPKIN, cinnamon, nutmeg and all of the other Fall scents that have been wafting through our home

have been completely snuffed out by the unmistakable fragrances of bleach and Lysol. 

This Autumn will most certainly be remembered as the one that FLU by!    (Pun absolutely intended, ha, ha!).

Smash is finally looking better tonight.  He is starting to feel hungry again, the poor kid looks like he's lost some weight.  He was awake and alert for the afternoon, he has literally been sleeping nonstop since Sunday.  I am so happy that he seems to be on the mend.

Emily came home from school early yesterday morning, she too was sick, stomach ache.  But thankfully by evening time, she was beginning to feel better already.  She went to school this morning, thinking she would give it a try and maybe come home early if she didn't feel well, and she felt fine!   All day.  Thank heaven for small favors.

Meg and Nathan are both doing well.  Phew!  Keeping them healthy is my number one priority.  Especially Nathan!  He must be well to enter his mission.  Jonathan is doing just fine also.

I am determined to be well!  I am!  I had more energy today, so I spent that energy sanitizing the surfaces which are most often touched in our home (again!).  After that, I vacuumed two rooms and by the middle of the 2nd room, my lungs were on fire!  They were burning like crazy; I felt like I had been running a marathon.  I could feel the burn in my lungs even in my back.  That is not acceptable!  

I did go back to bed as soon as I realized that I might internally combust.

Hopefully now, we are on our way up. 

Up. Up. Up.  But not in flames.
