My daughter had it and didn't recover until a full 14 days of hacking and fever..I hope she makes a turn for the better soon.

She's congested but not really coughing or anything. She's just sleeping a ton and running a fever. I'm making sure she gets plenty of fluids in her but she's not eating much at all. Can't seem to get her to take more than a couple of bites of anything no matter what I offer her.

She's close to 5 lbs now. I try to keep an eye on her weight, as she will eat anything/everything and will get fat very quickly!

Wow! She's tiny!

So we made it back from the Mall and I bought NOTHING...Mr Crabbypants bought a suit,a dress shirt,an Ohio State Champ Tee and 2 pairs of shoes. I'm thinking since I didn't buy anything I have a few mods coming...What say you?
We didn't even argue..We always argue but it turned out to be a positive experience.I guess there was always that chance.

Yeah just keep her drinking.Anna couldn't get out of bed for any length of time. Luckily her ex had the boys that week.I got down there the second week but believe me when I say she WAS sick she was really really sick.They closed a school district..Everyone had it.

I actually asked at the school if there was a high incidence of the flu going around before we found out it was the flu. They said no, not at her school. She's stay;ing home tomorrow too. Hopefully she'll start feeling better tomorrow. And luckily no one else is showing any signs of being sick.

I don't think I could get hubby to go shopping with me at the mall. Occasionally he'll run to Walmart with me but that's about it. Of course I'm not a fan of going to the mall either. Lately, if I go shopping then I go for something in particular. Get in and get out.

Well, apparently the problems with the "new" van are worse than we anticipated. The check engine light had come on. Not really a big deal. They pressure wash the engine at the dealership and we figured they just knocked something loose. They checked and reset it, and Mrs E started home. Before she got home, it came back on. I had her stop at Auto Zone to get a free diagnostic check. They said the codes being thrown was a leak in the O2 sensor, and the catalytic converter was bad. Great. So, while I went to the gym, Mrs E drove BACK into Charlotte to drop the van off and get a loaner for a couple of days. If this happens again, we are going to tell them to take the POS back and give us a 2012 Odyssey Touring Elite (we got the 2011 Touring Elite) and they arent going to change any of the financing. This sucks, because we REALLY like this van.

And as I said, I went to the gym. Burned off almost enough Calories to negate everything Ive eaten today. Now Im gonna load up on dinner with some fried fish filets and tater tots. :D And Im hurtin'. I stayed off of everything that even MIGHT have hurt my back, but it's still reminding me it's not back to fully better yet. So, Im gonna get some kids in bed, and stretch out on the couch for a little while, then get to bed. HOPEfully, I'll get a call from a certain coach to tell us Kat made the team!

I will update as available!

Of course you deserve the isticks...Has Mr V tried to steal them yet? No kittens.We still have the mom and the baby's daddy. Anna has a magnificent German Shepherd we have to take.She's really sick with Crones.She was afraid she would have to give her up.I told her we would take her until she could get her back.She's high drive.I'm a little concerned about Rums cause he's old and Dixie because she's frail.Hopefully she will fit in O.K....What's one more?

Morning posse!!!!!

Stretchy, one of my uncles has that miserable disorder. He went 100& organic/non gmo and got much, much better within a few months. It might be worth a try for your Anna. It certainly can't make matters any worse.

I love GSD's. What I don't need is a big, coffee table sweeping tail. :laugh:

I do not feel like doing a darn thing today. meh.
