Looking Up...at least for the moment.

My OB's nurse gave me the go ahead for Ibuprofen. Thank the Lord! My temp is coming down and I don't feel like giving in to death right now. Tylenol wasn't cutting it.

Husband isn't faring as well. He just went back to bed after attempting to cough up a lung. He did take vacation for the rest of the week, so at least he doesn't have to go into work feeling like a wet noodle. I just wish C***P offered paid sick days so he didn't have to waste his vacation time. He only gets 3 weeks...I know that's a lot for some folks, but when he has to save at lest a week for the baby, these 3 days are precious. But I am thankful he has them to take at all.

The kids seem to be feeling better. BabyGirl has developed a cough and is congested, so she's still at home. She may miss this entire week of school...I'm not thrilled about this, but what can you do? Her eyes are getting watery and I'm really hoping it's not a return of the pink eye. She's still on the drops, so I wonder if it isn't just the head cold affecting her eyes.

And the sun is shining...for that I am thankful!
