The Flu and other not so interesting things

Well, it was bound to happen to us eventually. The day after we got back from Utah Isaac came down with the H1N1 flu. Then Joe, then Lily and finally me. I got it on my birthday and have been so sick ever since. Along with the flu I got Conjunctivitis, a sinus infection, and Pneumonia. I went to the urgent care Saturday morning and started on Antibiotics. All I want is a good night sleep and to be able to eat something real. I'm sorry I haven't called anyone but I've lost my voice and I don't know when it's going to reappear. Clara and Dave haven't gotten sick yet but I'm sure it's coming.

Clara missed preschool last week because I was to sick to take her and the older kids did school but without any direction they didn't get very much done.

Clara also woke up with a tooth ache on Wednesday. I did drag myself out of bed and Dave and I took her to the dentist. She had a really bad cavity in one of her molar and the tooth was going to have to be pulled. We set up an appointment for the next day. While she was at the dentist get her tooth pulled, Lily lost a tooth at home. Actually, she lost the same tooth. They both got to put there tooth under there pillows and the tooth fairy only had to make one stop.

Dave's work collaboration had there US meeting in Fort Collins this past weekend (he missed most of Saturday's meeting take me to the doctor). They had a special dinner at a Asian restaurant on Friday night. It was really nice to be able to go with Dave and have him show me off. I couldn't talk so I mostly just sat there but it was fun still the same.

Lastly, Dave's work friends decided to take me to see the ballet on Saturday night. We were going to see "The man of La Mancha" at the Denver Ballet. We drove down in our van and saw the ballet, which was awesome. Then we went to Chile's and had dinner and they sang happy birthday to me (which I didn't dive under the table mom, I thought you should know). It was really fun, the only things is that it was 3 couples and me. I did feel a little like a 5th wheel but they did there best to make me feel comfortable and for that I'm grateful. Well, I better go. I didn't sleep much last night and I can feel it getting to me.
