i need to take a break

I am still not better. I did so good for mom's party, took it real easy yesterday and today, I'm almost back to square one. I have zero energy. Daytime tv sucks(seriously and we have how many channels?) We were supposed to be on holidays today but had to cancel them as I can still barely stand up straight. I'm sick of laying down(and it hurts, my whole body hurts)

And to make it even more fun(do you hear the sarcasm?), B came out of his room and told me that his mosquito bite had gotten bigger. Huh? He has this HUGE lump on the side of his neck(and it's not a bug bite but a swollen lymph node of some sort). Jim rushed him off to the clinic who immediately sent him to the ER. Last I had heard, B had had blood work and some chest xrays and was waiting to be seen by the pediatrician on call.

This may go down as the worse summer ever for the kids. I feel like such a bad mom. And could these be anymore of a pity post??? :(

Hugs!!!!!

With the bug bite, it could be as simple as an allergic reaction... my kids have always swelled quite a bit with them

So sorry that you are having such a crappy summer. :0( As for your son? I think the mosquitoes are mutants this year. My girls and myself have had some nasty bites...hopefully it is just an alergic reaction of some kind. Hope he is doing better soon. Take care. :0)

Sick in the winter is expected and tolerated. Sick in the summer is evil. I'm sorry :(

As a friend said to me, when I was sick earlier this spring: "Note to Mother Nature: Moms can't get sick, they don't have time!"
I am so sorry to hear you are sick! That is just awful!
I hope your son is okay, I can only imagine how it must make you feel even crappier to not be able to be with him :-(
Pity-posts are definately okay! Sometimes we need a little sympathy :-)

(((Rhonda))) hope you and son are feeling better today.
