There is illness in our house.
Fever, sore throat, headache, muscle aches. Bill has had it, Mia, and now Cory. I am exhausted.
Bill has been sleeping in Mia’s room because he is so miserable. His stroke symptoms come back with glee when he is ill, so he feels double rotten.
Last night I awoke at midnight and could not go back to sleep. After an hour, I gave up and turned the bedside lamp on and started reading.
Around that time, Quinn crept into the room and crawled into bed. I asked him what was wrong and he said “Nothing”
“Are you scared?”
“No”
“Do your legs hurt?”
“No”
“Well, why did you come in?”
Sitting up in bed, smiling, he replied “Because I love you”.
Sometimes, I just have to wonder how I got so damn lucky.
Ahhh … just when you want to shove an ice pick in your eye socket, they go and do something all perfect and sweet.
Wow–You go girl.
Read the book (Maiden Voyage.) Great reccomendation. Really a good read.
All I kept thinking about was how close my own daughter is to that age…and I sure as heck wouldn’t be puttin’ her on a boat for 2 1/2 years.
Wow.
Well written and great.
Thanks,
Hey Shell!
Yes, I am still on it. today is my last day, and I am SO sick of brown rice. I cheated and had a cup of coffee yesterday and the day before. It made me feel TERRIBLE. I was all shaking and got a headache, and I suspect that is why I couldn’t sleep last night.
I am planning to continue the diet, but much modified. I lost 6 lbs!
Jody, Hope everyone feels better soon! Are you still on your Detox? I tried for ONE day and couldn’t do it – wimp, I know! Sending you healing vibes from Colorado……
Shel
Those are the greatest moments of all.
I hope the illness passes quickly and no one else gets it.
