For over a week now my family has been decimated by illness. Mom and Dad still aren't completely over their flulike stuff, [info]aquagirl is probably still compromised, and even though Owen was well enough to go to school again, he's still not in tiptop shape. He's taking a nap next to me. This kid does not nap. That's an indication right there that something ain't right.

* Last night we watched the last of our new favorite show, Living With the Mek.

* I finally got my hair cut (first time since...January?), and it looks a little Stepford-Wife-meets-Edie-Sedgwick, but it's growing out and what are you gonna do, right?

* I just ate some watermelon and briefly pretended it was July and that I don't still see snow outside. That's not snow, it's dandelion fluff. Hey, watermelon. Yummy.

* We made plans for a tiny, mini, twee vacation that involves baseball and food. I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to it, too. YES.

Isn't that crazy? I had the flu shot too. In Houston though, I was likely to get more than one flu virus without it.

Yeah...I got the flu shot AND the pneumonia shot. I have had BOTH.

A twee vacation? You should market that idea. :)

I'm sorry to hear it's still Plaguefest '08 (tm) around there. Here's hoping it lifts soon...

Ugh, I am sorry you guys got so sick. It's so awful when it lasts forever like that! Hopefully, by now, everyone is over it.

Hopefully your snow is gone too!! We had snow late as well, but right now *knock on wood, and all that* the snow is gone and it is even a little warm out! I'm not holding my breath though, it always seems like just when it starts to get nice out and you think the worst is past it gets cold and will even snow a little bit more one last time. :p

That sounds like a great tiny, mini, twee vacation! We are trying to think up some fun things to do with Wes this summer, since his last summer was so awful and we did absolutely nothing. I think we should schedule a baseball game in there!
