So... I'm not entirely sure what strain of flu just ripped through my household but one by one we were infected, devoured and left writhing in aches and pains in it's awake.
Alright that's a slight over exaggeration but it sure sounded good as I was typing it. And it's not too far off...
The infant boy I babysit during the day got sick Wednesday night & his mom thought it was something he'd eaten making him ill. So she kept him home Thursday and brought him over Friday cause he seemed better. Well I knew it was against my better judgment to take him so soon after he'd been ill but it was the day they were paying me and I had half expected to never hear from them again and not get paid.. So the fact that they showed up with my cash was shocking but that's another gripe.
Anyway! Saturday comes about and we're working on a home reno project, contemplaiting meeting up with some friends... And then in about the span of an hour I'm lifeless & useless. The next 24 hrs were brutal to say the least. Then my son Phoenix started showing signs of illness by morning, and Jonas came down with the symptoms last night. But within 24hrs of initial symptoms we're all doing well with the expection of Jonas who's still only on hr15..
While it's true we haven't been this sick in a long time, it's certainly not what I would describe as epic by any stretch of the imagiation. Now, we didn't go to the assessment center to get tested (I think that's foolish cause if you're not sick with the s.flu then you think you might possibly catch it by going there... mhmmm?) And while the flu hasn't been any fun, I don't see the need for the propaganda the media is pushing full force. Personally I'm glad I didn't go get the shot and I'm exceptionally pleased that I didn't let those effers near my son. I have an entire rant & a half about kids under 5 getting the shot at this point too but I'll save that for another day.
Anyways, the last 4 days have been a loss. I'm behind on messages. I'm behind on phone calls. But I'm slightly inspired from all the online lusting I've been able to do while lounging on the couch.
