When It Rains It Pours

Today's Current Event - Not much. Cleaned a little, exchanged a coat Doug bought me, went grocery shopping, and took care of Doug. He has the flu. Also did some work on a cross-stitch I got for Christmas. I am now convinced that people who do cross-stitch for fun are insane. I will finish this one out of sheer determination but don't know if I will do another.

To re-cap the first week of the new year, all was well on the eve. Doug and I stayed home and played a rousing game of Scene It. We had promised Morgan she could stay up to watch the ball drop, but she fell asleep (big surprise) and we woke her at 5 minutes to midnight. Blurry eyed and tired, she was less than impressed. New Years Day we went out to breakfast at one of our favorite little joints called 3 Monkeys in Carytown. I had the crabmeat eggs benedict with asparagus and Doug had the sirloin benedict. Morgan enjoyed a huge belgian waffle with whipped cream.

By the next day though, all was downhill. All three of us had strept throat, I had the added pleasure of a double ear infection, the flu, and PMS. It was not pretty. By Friday we were all feeling better with our antibiotics and such, then today Doug came home with the flu. Heaven help us because we are supposed to leave for Jamaica on Wednesday. Gah!
