Here's what's been happening in our neck of the woods...




Pardon the bad photos.
I try not to get too close.
I don't handle the Florence Nightingale role well.
Just being honest.
I prefer to think I am making it easier on their future wives.  The bar has not been set very high in terms of coddling people with fevers and colds.
So, yeah...
That's what has been happening in our neck of the woods.
What's been happening in yours?

It hasn't hit hard at our place yet... I am thankful! Hope everyone gets well soon and stays well!

OH no! Poor sweetheart. I hope that he feels better soon.

I can cuddle just fine, and clean up puke, too. BUT but but... I hate whining that goes along with being sick. It is like nails on the chalkboard.

SO hugs to you, too! Hope you are well, it has been awhile. Life has been crazy! You know how that goes. :)

Nicolle said...

You make me laugh. I feel like you when my guys get sick! Well, I'm better about coddling Boyd, and I just roll my eyes at Kevin. My poor husband seems to exaggerate the sickness a little in this house. Just saying.

Mary said...

All I have to say is that it's a good thing my boys hardly ever get sick! :)

Alicia said...

i am not a good coddler AT ALL! especially with my hubby, who seems to suck all he can out of a "cold." :) but i do hope he feels better soon :)

Janie Fox said...

haha good for you. my man isn't a baby b/c his mom has no emotions. haha it is true. I hope she doesn't read you. she doesn't read me. she said who would care to read what people write on blogs. ouch. she is nice;)
I keep meaning to tell you that the picture of you holding the mug with the dark nail polish has been my inspiration to quit biting mine. It is working!
Hope your son feels better soon!

I have a similar picture over here.... my house hasn't been this quiet while other people were in it in a long time....

Hope everyone is on the mend and your distance equates to dodging the sick bullet! : )

Oh man, when the kiddos (or hubby) is sick, it's no fun for anyone. My husband laughs at me...it doesn't bother me when my son gets sick (I'm a hovering mama at that point), but I don't do well AT ALL when my hubby gets sick. I'll come in and check on him obviously, and bring him his medicine and all of that--but I'm usually spraying Lysol all through my path to and fro the room to help keep the germs away. :-)

Hope everyone gets to feeling better soon and hopefully you won't catch the bug.

Good grief! You probably couldn't do my job. Of course, I don't coddle the kids at school much now that I think about it.

I like the Seminole snuggie...... E wants an Auburn on for Christmas since we have two crimson and white ones in this house.... maybe I should ask for one, too..... just to balance it all out, right?

Susan said...

P. S. I have the same thermometer in my health room...... I love it.... no germs!

Denise said...

Oh my...good luck with a house full of sick boys. In the first pic I did a double take...thought he was sporting a "Snuggie". Hope you stay healthy!

Theresa said...

Sorry to hear the boys are sick. Hope they are feeling better soon!

Mrs. Dunbar said...

I love how you are helping out their future wives. What a good MIL you will make!

How does that thermometer work? Have they gotten to miss school too?

What I Did Today said...

I'm not a coddler each. Well, maybe for babies, but the older they get the less sympathetic I feel. My poor husband. Last month was our sick month. Hope everyone is back to health in your home really soon!

Ashley {hudson's happenings} said...

Oh no. :( Sick times are NO fun. Hope everyone starts feeling better VERY SOON!!!!!

teresa-bug said...

I bet that is why God gave you boys! I hope they are feeling better, they have Christmas break to enjoy!

The wonderful FSU blanket had to help him feel better faster! :)
