And I'm starving, but I can 't taste a thing

Yesterday, I spent $60 for doctors and prescriptions, and my kids just got sicker.

Last night, they were up over and over, puking, moaning, awake and feeling crappy.

Today, their old attitudes returned, the snot decreased, no one puked, and food was consumed. They are on the mend.

Judging by the size of the headache I had this afternoon, and my own snot load, I'm recovering more slowly, in spite of my weeks head start.

This hasn't been a bad week for the bad weather to hit here. It's been cold since Friday, I think, and the kids started getting sick about the same time. Saves me the trouble of either listening to them bitch about wanting to go to the park, or actually having to get geared up and go. All of my forays have been luckily made during non-slick times, so I didn't even have to risk our lives for the drugs. On the other hand, this super cold snap isn't endearing this place to me. I'm fully aware that it is cold in other places, but that other place will be less cold for fewer days.

I'm still grumpy, can you tell?
