Day Five

**Our Gourmet Diet**

**Our Marathon Runners**

**Our "Man's Best Friend"**

Oh My Word

It has been a LONG five days.

It has hit us each

One. At. A. Time

- - - - -

About every 18 hours someone comes to me with the pale skin and watery eyes saying,

"Mom, I am not really feeling very good."

- - - - -

Seconds later we are running to
"Man's Best Friend"

- - - - -

It has been awful. My poor washer and dryer are wishing they could go on strike.

We are currently singlehandedly keeping Powerade in business.

And Charmin as well.

- - - - -

Today I am starting to see a faint light at the end of the tunnel.

Oh please little light,

SHINE ON!!

- - - - -

The most fun is being the Mom of 3 puking kids.

- - - - -

As if I felt super myself, I was running from room to room, taking orders, switching movies, books, leapster games, taking requests for food, making bread and refilling gatorade.

Oh and did I mention

LAUNDRY

- - - - -

Not so very long ago, I remember thinking to myself, I wish I could just take a sick day, lay around in bed and watch movies and eat angel hair pasta with butter and salt.

- - - - -

What a stupid wish.

Never again.

- - - - -

Tomorrow will be better.

It HAS to be.

If I have to go another day eating pasta and rice and white bread I am going to puke again.

- - - - -

Hopefully we have served our time and get to go without this terrible plague for...

well how about a few more DECADES!

Atleast until every person can make it to the toilet.

- - - - -

That'll be my new wish!
