The ugly gets uglier....

So now every person in our family has officially "experienced" the lovely stomach bug. It is more of a parasite than a mere bug, with an average of eight hours spent losing whatever could possibly left of one's stomach contents. You then spend the next fourteen hours with a splitting headache and every joint aching like you were hit by a Mack truck on your way from the bathroom back to bed. Don't know how I didn't see that thing and jump out it's way, maybe next time....

Randy nursed us through Wednesday, but fell victim to it this morning. At about five I felt him jump out of bed and hightail it to the bathroom. Poor guy, at least I get to return the nursing favor and let him know how many hours he has left with each "symptom". Linda was sweet enough to spend the day here playing with the kids and making toast for all of us. We sent her home this afternoon with the promise to take care of her if she followed suit.

You can bet I'll be spending the weekend sanitizing the house so as not to infect any poor unsuspecting visitor. San Diego and eighty degrees is sounding pretty good right now!
