done, done, done
I finally finished the back for the minimalist cardi, this leaves simply 1 sleeve left. I think I'll start seaming before I finish the other sleeve, for some fun. But the sleeve shouldn't be too awful after that back, which was awful. No shaping. Wow I don't want to knit anything without shaping for a long while. Shaping makes things so much more fun and less boring.
So the short version of the story is the husbeast had some issues with his gallbladder and the flu at the same time it involved a trip to the ER (for him) and BG had to come with me as I had no place to leave her at the time. So then BG got the flu from him on sunday I think it was the morning she had a high fever. So then this morning we all went together first to a doctor for DH and then a doctor for BG. So far I am not showing signs of the flu, but I am exhausted. I can't imagine if I had to be dealing with work right now with all of this, and I thank my lucky stars I am not working right now. it would have made it far worse and more stressful, or i would have had to take a lot of days off but mostly i think i would have been more tired them I am at the moment.
So I will take my vitamins, eat and drink and hope I don't get sick so I can keep taking care of everyone. What a miserable blog entry huh? But hey I finished the back of the cardi, huzzah that is truly wonderful. So off I go to take care of everyone, as best as I can, which I'm afraid isn't enough but it'll have to do.

Not miserable, just real. Most of us can really relate. This or that bug is running around here rampant, too. As soon as one kid gets better, the next one is throwing up.

Gosh, I sure am sorry that everyone is sick. Last weekend I was under covers all weekend with some sort of bug and every now and then the nasouseness (sp) comes back. Everyone thinks Im pregnant... I think its the flu trying to take over my life!
And I've been doing the same, lots of fluids, vitamins and rest when I can. But I tell you... if I go the rest of my life without feeling like I need to throw up, I'd die one happy chick!
Lots of prayers and good thoughts for a healthy family soon.

Oh noes! =\ Doesn't sound like a very fun time at the moment - apart from the luscious cardi that is. All I can suggest is a saying my Dad often offers at times like this "it will pass with time". All things pass with time - and soon you will be in easier days again *hug*
