Q is for QUARANTINE



This became the joke amongst my friends and primary posse.
Since I started getting sick on the 2nd of April. I was sick all through conference and on Monday Tom took me to the doctor where I learned I had a contagious virus. On the way home from the doctor the school called Tom to let him know Skyler had injured his ankle. Could things get any worse! Since Tom was so kind to take care of me over the weekend, somehow I showed him my thanks by sharing the virus with him. The only problem with that was he not only got sick but ended up at urgent care on Saturday with pneumonia and should have been in the hospital. I ended up back at the doctors on Monday for some antibiotics to get myself well and so that I didn't end up with pneumonia. With me still sick and him even worse, it was a joke to try and take care of him and myself plus get the kids ready and out for school. Somehow we managed. Skyler started to get sick but shook it off in a day or so. With everyone on the mend and Tom getting back to work part time. I thought yeah we can get back to normal. whatever normal is..... Not so fast I learned. Hunter woke up Thursday night about
1 am or so throwing up. I never heard her,(just a little over tired) Tom did though. Once I woke up and heard the noise, I said thanks and sent him to bed. I didn't need him to relapse and start all over again. Hunter was down for the weekend and on Monday she was back to school. The Q will stay up until the last day of the month just to be sure. What a month..May May bring flowers and beautiful weather and no more colds!
