Next Year we are All Getting the Flu Shot!!!

Well, today is Friday, day 8 of Mallory's illness. She has a stuffy nose and her cough is still there, though not as bad, BUT she is up and about. She is being a little silly, coloring, and she left the living room. She still isn't quite herself but so much better! Although, today I feel like I am going to die or wish I would. I get sporadic moments and think okay I am going to be better, but they are short lived. I started figuring it out and the ones of us who didn't get the flu shot are the ones that are sick. Mallory and I neither one had it (this is the first year in several that I didn't get it, of course!) and then little Anthony had just gotten his first one when he got the flu the next day or so. Babies have to get an initial shot and then a booster after 1 month. Hopefully Anthony won't get it again now that he has had both of his shots. I asked Ezie today if he was glad that I made him get the flu shot when he had his physical. He said yes (even though I thought he was never going to quit crying after he had the shot). Anyway, next year everyone in this house is getting a flu shot!!

I am going to have Earl bring some Lysol Spray http://www.lysol.com/ home and I am going to spray the carpet and the couch. I am going to use those little Lysol wipes on the keyboard, phone, doorknobs, etc ..... Hopefully this will help to prevent this nasty flu bug from the cycle of going back and forth between Mallory and myself.

Okay, time to go rest so I can do the dishes. Where is the housework fairy????? I need her!!!!!

Later!
