cabin fever(s)

last week was rudely interrupted by a stomach bug-- which apparently there are a dozen types of going around. i am now convinced it was some kind of food poisoning-- b/c THANKfully i was the only one to 'get it'. i am sooooo thankful for my mom, who came over and took christian for the day so i could recover. i don't know how people who spend the entire night on the bathroom floor and then care for little ones by themselves the next day can possibly do it!
fortunately i was somewhat back to normal by the following day, though a bit shaky still.
somewhere over the weekend christian and i have both developed a cold. his is more the runny nose and cough again, and mine is more the sore throat/fatigue thing. it's not bad enough to be in bed, but we're not exactly jumping up to run errands or go out for playdates. these cold days in general have got me singin the winter blues-- but not being able to leave the house at all is driving me crazy.
i have been spending some time recounting my 20's this week... as they are soon coming to an end... and i'm hoping to post a bit about that later... for now, i am spent and need to go night-nights. . . um, i mean, go to bed.
i wish i could sleep under some UV Rays and wake up with a little tan and feel like i just had a nice nap in the sunshine! maybe i'll invent the 'tanning mattress'.

I hope you are feeling much better! Every one here is sick as well, a huge epidemic is going around. Yikes.
