Sick Sick SICK

Germans are celebrating Fasching this week... so they're getting all dressed up and hopped up on sugar (and booze) while my poor Monkeys have been sitting on the couch melting their brains with Pixar.

So. much. sickness. 

February was one of those "where did the month go?" kind of months - mostly thanks to the on-and-off-again sickness from these two cuties. They've missed a good bit of school and are currently driving me insane suffering from fever/coughs. Thankfully the fevers are done, just the coughs and whining remain ;o) 

Lily, my passionate sufferer, is quite ornery during this most recent illness. And Momma, also a passionate sufferer, is quite ornery because she's quite ornery and I keep begging Jesse to "let" me go run any and every errand possible just to get out of the house! It's been five days and I feel like it's been 50.

So they were NOT able to dress up cute and celebrate the end of winter with candy and sweets at their school's Fasching party yesterday. They've watched so much tv this week they're actually getting bored of it - gasp! Anyways we're all feeling lazy and gross.

February was supposed to be my "let's get back to that regular cleaning schedule" month. And my "let's blog more regularly again" month. And my "let's start exercising more regularly" month. Yeah right. Maybe March will be a less-sick month.

But at least I can cross "read 'The Gruffalo's Child' 5,000 times" off of my bucket list!

Sometimes SICK happens.
