About 24 hours ago, I started feeling horrible... and it kept me up and down all last nite. By morning it had progressed into full sickness and I was miserable. Tim had a ton of things to do today so I attempted to be a Mom without getting off the couch... thankfully my kids were really good for the most part. Tim came home for lunch and I thought I was a bit better and tried eating a simple saltine cracker. I knew it wasn't going well but told Tim to go back to church. About 45 mins. later, Micah called him for me and I sobbed in the bathroom and he was able to come home and take care of the kids (esp. Addie who wouldn't leave my side and was laughing at me) so I could get some rest. Four hours later I emerged from lifelessness (Tim said he was honestly scared I wasn't breathing b/c I didn't move the entire time) and after a bit of ginger ale and just taking it easy, I am happy to say that I think the worst of it is over. I never had a fever or anything... and it all started after I ate a Reese PB Egg and coffee last nite... needless to say, I won't be having any of those or Starbucks Bottled drinks for awhile.
I hate getting sick... I haven't thrown up for almost 5 years... right after delivering Micah in fact. Blech!! I am so glad I am usually immune.
I hope that it was either just all b/c of what I ate b/c I felt fine up until that instant or that is somehow just stays with me if it was a bug. I cloroxed and lysoled everything I touched and I hope everyone else is spared. Micah's party is this weekend and it is bad enough I lost a day of planning... I would hate for something to happen to anyone else and have them miss it.
On a better topic... most of the party things are coming together- even with a missed day. I have everything planned, I just need to go get supplies tomorrow. I really think I will be running all over... I have a field trip with Micah (and I pray that I can go b/c Tim really needs to be at work and Micah actually has to be taken there by us instead of the bus this time) and then we need to shop then Tim has a meeting at church and then we are going to my MILs... and I still need to bake and clean up a few things before any family gets here Saturday. Sigh... I am exhausted again just thinking about it.
I think my jello might be ready so I am going to eat some of that and then head to bed. I am starving but trying to be cautious. Lets hope that since I feel normal, all of it is over...
