I guess you can tell I have been busy as I haven't been blogging as much.
Tale of the 4 sickies
So, last Wednesday, I woke up at my normal time 5:00, and went to feed the guineas. I got down there and found Tyler who called me his hero and looked like he was close to tears. He had been throwing up violently ALL night. The bathroom was covered, the kitchen sink (and dishes therein) were covered, and he had 3 bowls with crap in them. NASTY! I got my gloves on and cleaned for 2 hours before I had to go to work. When I came home, he was still very sick. I prayed hard I would never get this thing. He couldn't keep anything down.
Thursday night, around 1:00AM, Alayna woke me up. She had thrown up ALL over her bed. I got her and the bed all cleaned up, got her some meds, which she threw up, and then I couldn't go back to sleep. While I was watching TV at 3AM, Bob comes in looking completely pale and ran into the bathroom to throw up. I am not sure he has thrown up since we have been married? Thank heavens I had Friday off. Here are my 2 FB posts to sum that up…
“Ok jerk stomach virus! You have taken down 75% of our family with your violence. You have created a chaotic mess in our home and messed with my weekend. As I run through the house with a Lysol weapon shooting through the air, wearing my armor of gloves, mask, and a life supply of airborn, I shout with an air of confidence (and Lysol) You will never take me alive!!!”
“Deep cleaned and disinfected for 9 hours, on my 10th load of laundry, on my 3rd load of dishes, taking care of 3 super sick people, and cleaned all the cages. I. Can’t. Move. What kind of stupid day “off” is this?!?!”
Saturday night I lost my battle with the germs. Badly. This stomach virus was violent. I couldn't believe how sick I was. Couldn't keep anything down for over 24 hours. The body aches (on top of the fibro) were unbearable. I missed PD at school on Monday. I ended up watching tons of TV because I would blackout every time I got up so I couldn't go any where. On Sunday, Alayna was better stomach wise but came down with a fever, headcold, and major sinus infection. Then Tyler came down with it and now has laryngitis on top of it. Now my nose is running- when does it end?!?!
Speaking of lots of TV…we are loving Designated Survivor, 24 Legacy, APB, Speechless and Timeless!
Alayna
Here is picture of Alayna at YW on the night we met with and did a skit for the seniors in the ward. She has been very busy with school. She will be starting tennis next month.
Tyler got a long term sub job at the daycare. He is working full time for the next month. Hopefully after that, he will get on the job permanently. He is really loving the job and the kids love him too! I am happy for him, but sad I will missing my personal home chef
I am SOOO happy Kayla and Brandon are in Provo now too. Kayla and Marisa have been taking dance and workout classes together and they have been having a cousins dinner night. I love seeing them have fun and have each other. Kayla is still enjoying her job and Brandon went down this weekend to Las Vegas for a job fair/training thing? I miss their faces, but happy to see them doing so well. And HAPPY ANNIVESARY to Brandon and Kayla!!!
We got a machine that converts VHS tapes to DVDs, so we have been fun watching all of our old family videos together.
We had a nice, quiet Valentines Day with our traditional heart-shaped pizza
Only 2 weeks until Spring Break! Ive got this, right?!
They made it to Utah safely despite the massive storm. Kayla and Brandon have settled in their new apartment. Marisa and Brandon started the new semester. Kayla got a new job at Shoe Carnival and started Friday.
