Back from the dead

I woke up this morning after a 24 hour bout with a stomach bug. Most of the time "Bug" is used at my house to annotate something cute and cuddly. Not yesterday, though. Madelyn and I both got sick night before last and the illness continued on until yesterday afternoon. Madelyn all of a sudden felt better, but I suffered on until late last night. I laid on the couch until yesterday evening, when the sounds of screaming kids, slamming doors, and angie's cleaning and trying to keep the kids quiet got to me. I wandered into the extra bedroom to shut myself in and did not emerge until this morning. Angie came in to check on me about 10 last night. I think she was worried that I was sleeping so much. This morning, we fumigated the house and sterilized all the bedding and anything else Maddy or I touched. I need to mow the yard before it becomes junglesque, but I'll probably put that off until this evening or tomorrow. At least I took down the faulty gutters from our back porch and put up new green wire for Ang to hang out psycho Mandevilla from. That was enough to make me a stinky, sweaty, disgusting mess.

I've been trying to think of some pictures and a topic to put on the blog. I have writer's block. Maybe someone can comment and give me a topic.....ha, ha.
