Making me crazy!

I've been cooped up at home for way too long! Delaney was under the weather on Monday. Marian was sick on Monday and a bit better on Tuesday. I sent her to preschool on Wednesday because she seemed okay. She spent that afternoon on the couch and both Marian and Callie were zonked and miserable on the couch on Thursday. No one went to preschool today. I hate being stuck at home. It makes me nuts. I seriously have to get out of the house every day.

I admit that yesterday I did go to the movies in the evening, and I saw "27 Dresses." I did like it. Today after Dan came home I abandoned him again with the kids and I went to the grand opening of the new Walmart in town. Yay! This is what the kids looked like this week.

When they weren't feeling well, they just lay there. Kind of nice actually. Then they would whine because they felt bad and everyone wanted to cuddle with mom, and then there was the crying and unhappiness. Marian was cute. She wanted all her meals on a tray, since that's what Joshua demands when he's not feeling well. I did oblige and she felt special.

Now if I can just keep Dan and Joshua healthy, life will be good. Hopefully everyone will be healthy and happy tomorrow and we can move on with life. This was a time-warp kind of week. I felt like I accomplished nothing because we were mostly stuck at home. I missed Playgroup and my alone-while-kids-are-at-school time, and I've had waaay too little adult conversation. Next week will be better!
