This seasons crude.....

In as much as I love this time of year I hate it. All the children are sick and now the litte petri dishes have passed it off to me.

Of course it is viral and not bacterial. Which makes it "JUST TOUGH IT OUT YOU BIG BABY!" kinda thing. First off the oldest man-boy gets strep. Then number one daughter gets laryngitis.

Then youngest son and youngest nephew get colds. Youngest nephews turns into sinus infection. Oh my word....I have never seen so much green stuff ooze out of a small child.

So much so between the two steady streams from his nose and his eyes I would swear and alien is trying to escape. Since escape in that venue was not working out. Friday morning the poor guy starts vomitting and having diarrhea. Three loads of laundry by high noon.

It is now Monday and we are switching antibiotics because according to the doctor he should have been getting better not trying to expell the alien within.

Word to the wise the petri dishes expell germs faster than you can clean them with rubber gloves and disinfectant.
