virUS

I haven't blogged in ages but thanks to this horrific virUS floating around our house it has forced me to
(a)be gone 3 out of 5 days from work
(b)not move for almost 2 days from bed
(c)attempt to catch up on all my bloggins that I have been neglecting for soooo long.
**Recap...over the Halloween weekend we went to some friends block party to eat, play, and Trick or Treat. At the block party there was a communal eating table where everyone brought treats(mistake numero uno). We enjoyed the evening and came home with lots of loot! Monday was uneventful until bedtime. Luke was whiny and didn't want to sleep in his bed, which is rather strange for him unless its the weekend. At about 11:45 when M was coming to bed he woke me up to ask me if he could get Luke out of bed to sleep with us. Weird for M to say, but I will never turn down a snuggle opportunity. This is what I heard coming from down the hall...."OH NOOOOOOOOO!" Then I heard the bath water. Yep, the virUS had begun. Luke proceeded to barf in his bed, our bed, on every blanket we own, and in the trash can literally every 20 minutes until 5:30am! He finally went to sleep with me on his bedroom floor (remember all beds have been puked on) and slept until 8:45. The first words out of his mouth were, "Hi Mama, can I have some milk?" My boy was back and he spent the rest of the day his usual self. We spent the day at my Mom and Dad's(mistake numero dos) due to a house showing and life was again back to normal.
Wednesday after I picked Luke up from my Mom's I felt really weird and had no appetite. I raced home to put on my pajamas and quickly get into bed. Mike knew something was up when he got home and nothing was done. I like to have all my ducks in a row as soon as I get home from work. Less than 15 minutes later, after many attempts to supress the urge, the virUS reared it ugly head again on me. I would not wish this on my worst enemy. I called my mom to let her know and she was down and out with it as soon as we left her house. Mike talked to her about an hour later and my Dad had come from work with the same virUS. Later, he talked to our friend from the block party and the entire neighboorhood was battling the virUS. Needless to say, we have all been sucker punched and are now starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel!
Word to the wise~if someone has or has had a stomach bug stay FAR FAR AWAY!
