Another day, another sick child....


This was soooo two weeks ago. Now, no one looks this healthy at our house. My holiday time has become me playing nurse to everyone in the house. If it's not a child, it's Terry, and if it's not his hurt back, it's a hacking cat. I tell ya, I'm about ready to go on strike. This job stinks! The one good thing about it is that I get to sit at home with good books and cats sleeping on my lap. I think they think I quit work to be home with them. Last week I was home 2.5 days (that's half a week in the land of work!) and this week I'm on day 2, and it's only Wendesday. Zac had the fever that wouldn't quit, the sore throat that wouldn't budge, and now has the cough that makes me want to puke. Now Lillie has everything but the cough. She's replaced that with our first round of pink eye for the school year. My house is ONE BIG GERM! Wanna come over?

All I can HOPE is that we are getting all this shit out of the way before Christmas actually gets here. I will not spend my time off being sick or playing nurse. I wanna play and have fun and sleep in late and stay up watching my shows at night with cats crawling all over my lap fighting for one on one time with the brush. Speaking of cats, here's a pic of our newest, Gracie. She's about 3.5 months old and was found outside under a bush, abandoned in September. She's still not so sure of us, but LOVES mealtime....she wants to eat about every hour, or everytime I walk in the direction of the food bowls! LOL! BTW, that's Lillie holding Gracie and Lillie's friend, Trinity, is trying to get in on the action. Bossy Lillie says NO!
