Summer time and the livin' is....QUEASY.

It has been awhile. We have managed to avoid illness for a few months. It is my favorite thing about being out of school. Alas, all good things must come to an end.

Phillip started complaining of a stomach ache this morning. He still managed to eat a bowl of cereal, but did not hold it down for long. It just started to form those lovely chunks of white, putrid curdles in his stomach, when it made its encore. Unfortunately, he did not make it to the toilet. He blew chunks of rancid milk all over the rug. Yummy. I got clean up duty either because I'm the least likely to gag or I'm already not feeling well.

Half of my kids are complaining of stomach aches now. Fanflippintastic. Who knows how long this will last. At least it isn't during school. We will all be well just in time for school to start, so the kids can contract some other virus!

I would tell Phillip his tummy issues may be linked to his tampon hyjinks.. ;o)

Hope the epidemic passes soon!!

Poor you!
Be happy though that you made it this far into the summer without the creeping crud! First the pukes attacked our house right before vacation. At least I lost 10 lbs before meeting up with all of my highschool friends. I went on vacation to meet my friends alone with no husbands-only moms and kids. The week of July 4th we ended up with 8 sick kids! All with fevers, headaches and sore throats. One (mine of course) with a bad rash. We were in a tiny town with no urgent care center or open pharmacy!!! All of this in 105 + degree weather! Lasted 2 days for each kid. Now I can't wait for school to start to see what kind of crap comes home! Good luck to you in that department too!!
