I need to blog...I need to blog

I keep telling myself I need to write another blog entry.  But, I tell myself that when kids are running around me, or when I'm playing on my phone.  So, today, I've done it.  I'm on the actual computer, and my kids are at Grandma's house.

First, I just had the flu!  For real, it was unpleasant.  It was way better than having a stomach virus, for sure, but it put me out of commission for too long.  It's hard to be a sick Mommy.  You have no energy.  You are cranky.  And, you learn that you are the only person in the world who can wash dishes, or gather up dirty laundry, or wash towels, or throw half empty Coke (sorry....Sam's Choice Cola...we're saving money) cans in the garbage, or that you are the only person in the universe who cares about any of this.  But, I am almost better.  I still have a stuffy head.  And, I'm almost caught up on chores.  Don't get me wrong...Chuck was a wonderful nurse.  He fed me, medicated me, patted on me, waited on me, and he only complained a little.  I really appreciated it. And, thank goodness for Mom.  The kids stayed with her some, and that made it easier on everyone.  But, we're back to normal, and it's nice to feel like myself again.


Here's a picture of sweet little Eli doing magic for me while I was sick.  Ignore the messy bedroom. :)

And, while I'm here.....Here are some commercials I love right now.  I love that guy who's mayhem for Allstate, maybe?  In the newest one, he's snow on the roof.  He's been a Christmas tree on a car, and my favorite was when he was a teenage girl.  Funny!  And, the breakfast sandwich...can't remember.  Jimmy Dean?  I love their little costumes.  I love the sad little thunder who didn't eat.

Enough rambling. :)
