The Cold!

I don't know if any of you have had this horrible no good very bad cold. It comes with a complete package- congestion, sinus pressure, cough, sore throat, fever, nausea, aching, etc. This has been our past week- what a wonderful week for tim's parents to fly out for a visit.
Tim's parents arrived at our house on Saturday night and Sunday night I had a high fever. They had just got over the cold and of course now I was getting one. This probably came as no surprise to them because I am always sick whenever we go there or they come here. So I did nothing (absolutely nothing) for 3-4 days while Tim and his family enjoyed skiing and snowboarding all over Utah. It was really nice to have them here because then on Tuesday night Tim came down with a high fever. We were both sick and did not want to move a muscle. His parents helped out a ton from doing dishes, grocery shopping, running around town to pick up various things, to playing with the dog it was great to have them here.

Even Pike was sympathetic and laid with us all day long.

man that cold/flu has really knocked a lot of people out this year. make sure you get lots of sleep and eat good foods, so you don't get it again!

(sometimes i wish i could get sick...so i could have an excuse to curl up in a blacket in the recliner; just a few hours would be nice, oh how i wish that so bad.)

glad you survived the cold AND a visit from those crazy in-laws.
