February 24 Da FluI've had the flu, and it's kicked my behind! I can't remember the last time I was so sick.
In honor of the nasty lil bug that's running around wreaking havoc, I'm posting some ideas on how to get through it.
First since it involves throwing up and diarrhea, you are advised to avoid milk, milk products and fruit juices.
Even though that spicy enchilada plate sounds good.... avoid it, and any other spicy, acid type, burn on the way down and on the way out foods...
Don't plan on leaving the house any time soon, and, if you have to, you better know where each and every bathroom is between you and your destination.
Keep a bucket or garbage can near your bed, and remember the B.R.A.T. diet.
That's the diet your children's doctor recommends when they are sick. It works for adults too. It stands for Bananas, Rice, Applesauce and (dry) Toast. Most of which won't stay down for long, but, it's not as bad coming up as some other things, and is easy on the stomach.
Consider this my, "Public Service Announcement." Now, go, my friends, and may the flu bug of unhappiness never darken your door... BIG HUGS, Steph
February 18 The latest poop...I can't tell you how much it means to come here and read your comments. They keep me laughing.
We had a blessing happen to us. The other day the two neighbor boys that walk with my daughter, Lisa to school, came by to pick her up, but she was running late and told them to go on ahead. At the end of our block the boys were both hit by a car. Austin her best bud, rolled up and off of the hood. He wasn't hurt as bad as the other boy. The other boy, (he's new to the neighborhood) was pinned under the car and his legs were badly broken. The young lady who ran them over was flipping a u-ie and her windows were iced over. She didn't even see them. Thankfully both boys are doing much better, and since I don't believe in mere coincidences, I believe there was a reason that my daughter was late that morning. I'm very thankful she was.
On a lighter note, my daughter that is graduating High School this year, was nominated for Senior Girl, Best Looking, Most Athletic. She was voted, Most Athletic. Much to the dismay of one of her best friends who wanted that title. Jessica was voted, Biggest Flirt, instead... which if you know Jess, you know fits her perfectly.
My days are filled with lil man, Gauge, and he has decided that he only wants to watch Shrek movies, especially Shrek 2, and Sponge Bob Square pants. I have watched the Shrek movies so many times I know the dialog, and I just might make a Shrek trivia test to see if I can stump anyone.
What's been going on in your life? Let me know. BIG HUGS, Steph |
