The Flu & a Halloweeny Giveaway


Yup. I spent all last night huggin' the toilet bowl. Won't go into gory detail, lets just say this morning I woke up with aches and a bit of the chills. Thank goodness. Thank goodness you say? Yes. Last night I had nightmares I was pregnant. I had horrible vomiting through the first 5 months of all my pregnancies. So needless to say the chills are not that bad compared to what could be. Babies are a joy. I would like to have at least one more in the next few years (a boy, a boy, pretty please a boy). Just not now. Had to clarify. So I really do hope everyone is having a better weekend than me. Take care and check back tomorrow for my  Halloweeny giveaway

* The above image was found while on a google search. It didn't give credit for the artist. I love it though. Isn't it cute? Wait, is that a bloody knife in his pocket? Oh my goodness.

** Update: The chills are finally subsiding. Thanks to a super wonderful hubby (who fixed dinner and watched the kids) I was able to sleep most of the evening. The bad news is sweet little Abby is sick with the same thing. I will be praying for her. Hope all of you go and get those flu shots if you haven't yet. Thank you also for all of the kind words and well wishes!
