Good Health To You All

I'm not missing so much as sleeping. I've got the flu. I thought this kind of thing was over by the end of February...especially south of the Mason Dixon Line but I guess I was wrong. In a house full of children here, though, I seem to either be the only one that is going to get this or I'm the first in a line of many. I'm crossing my fingers for the former.
I can't write much because it's just too nasty to sit here and try to stay awake. I'm on serious medications like "Thera Flu" and "Nyquil" (not combined, honest!) and both tend to put me out for hours. I'm doing all of the right things like forcing fluids, eating chicken soup, and sleeping as much as possible. I'm sure this will pass. AND even though I'm a nurse...I'm not a terrible patient like I've heard we are supposed to be. I'm never a bad patient. Honest! So I'll write more when I'm not contagious. Here's wishing all that they stay healthy!
