Influenza B & Sinusitis

I want my mommy! The kids, Danny and I have Influeza B (no, I didn't get one of those stupid flu shots--but I wish I did now), and I've got a lovely sinus infection to go with it. Because moms never get a break, I'm still doing laundry, making dinner, cleaning house, etc. There, that's my whine for the day. And I feel like crap. Okay, now I'm really done whining. Donnie gave us all beautiful blessings and every one of us were promised we would be well. I'm going to rely on my faith and assume that means I'll be well tomorrow morning just in time for Board of Equalization hearings. :)

(Mom, if you're reading this you can't come here. We're extremely contagious and I'd hate it if you got this garbage.)

UPDATE: While I was still very ill for Board of Equalization, I survived and I have been fortunate enough to stay home all week and nurse my family. Someone in this family has run a fever every single day (they keep taking turns). I've cleaned a whole lot of house, made a ton of bread, put on 20 pounds, and am absolutely exhausted, but feel like a major success. I've survived nursing five people (myself included) round the clock for seven days. And, there is finally some hope for my chronic sinusitis. I have a new regimen of allergy meds to try. If this doesn't work...I'm off to another specialist (same one Danny saw several years back who fixed his problem). So, I'm incredibly hopeful this regimen will be just the thing to end the fiftenn month long battle with constant sinus infections. I'm feeling pretty good about it. Although, Allegra D works like meth for me...gives me tons of energy and makes it hard to sleep. Doc says this will wear off when my body adjusts. In the meantime, I'm sure getting alot done.
