I’m not sure which of my boys licked the pig first, but both Aus and Keeve are down with the Swine Flu. Great! Fevers. No appetites. Coughing. Headaches. I made jello and smoothies. I bought chicken-n-stars soup and Goldfish crackers. All should be well soon.
On the brighter side of sickness, homeschooling is canceled for the week! And the homeschool mother cannot quit smiling. :o) And we’re saving money by not having to feed the boys full meals. AND there were $10 gift card coupons in the paper for EACH prescription filled! Whoooo Hooooo $20!!!
We are quarantined for 5-10 days depending on their fevers. I felt like the neglectful mother in the doctor’s office. (Not the first time that has happened.) He asked when the last Tylenol was administered. Um, 8 hours ago. And yes, both boys had fevers over 102. Rick was left in charge for the afternoon …. but I should have checked on them when I got home. We’ll do better from here on out.
So, can you say eBay? I should be able to get ALL of the adoption media drive donations on eBay this week. :o) Another silver lining to the pink piggy cloud.
See you next week. Don’t bother coming by the house.

This is a good kind of break…but I am sure a homeschooling mom can figure out a way to at least get them to do some reading while they are sick…no vacations for homeschoolers!!! I hope they get well soon.
