I. Am. Dying.

Last Tuesday I didn't feel the best.  Just kind of run down - nothing to serious.  Wednesday....a little worse, but tolerable.  Thursday - death was knocking at my door.  You may think that I'm being a bit dramatic but I have NEVER been so sick.  My toes hurt, my hair hurt, my back was breaking, I was hacking up my lungs. . . .

I had to wait at the Dr office for 30 minutes & I was just about asleep when the Doc decided to show his face.  He was probably watching me on a hidden camera & just waited until I was almost passed out.  He took one look at me & said, "Uh oh.  I can look at you & tell you feel like crap."  After a nasty swab up my left nostril I was diagnosed with Influenza B.  The freaking flu.  To this day (8 days later) I am still sick.  My fever is gone, but I still feel like I've been hit by a truck.  To add insult to injury, Taylor & Rylee were diagnosed with it on Monday.  The both slept ALL day yesterday.  I bet they weren't awake for 4 total hours.  Today they don't have an appetite - but they aren't quite as sleepy.

Casey has been wonderful.  I slept for almost 2 days straight.  He took 2 days off of work & has been handling the dishes, the sweeping, the vacuuming & 3 meals/day for everyone.  I know, I know...stuff a woman does on a daily basis, but for a man to conquer this I was impressed!!  Caleb & Casey are both feeling fine & I am PRAYING that we are better within the next couple of days.  I have NEVER been this freaking sick!
