A (Hopefully) Brief Absence

by Kym on February 21, 2008

I’ve peered bleary-eyed at the comments on my last post and my, what a wonderful group you are! I feel the need to explain why you might now see me much in the next few days though. Here I’ve posted about how much I love my cyber-friendships, so disappearing without an explanation would be extra rude somehow.

Our household has been struck with a nasty tummy bug and I spent the entirety of last night into the wee hours of morning throwing up. I still feel pretty weak and shaky, but really hope the worst has passed. I must say, I sure am pathetic when I’m sick! For one brief panicked moment I considered contriving a way of rendering myself unconscious so I wouldn’t have to endure it anymore.

Considering the girls were throwing up the night before no, I don’t think I’m pregnant. But I sure was sobbing over the possibility that I might be and have to endure that sort of agony throughout. Kudos to the many women I know who’ve had to!

Right, I’m slumping out of my chair now. Hope to “see” you all again soon.

Much love,
Kim

Ugh. Almost nothing sucks more than the stomach flu. I do hope you’re on the mend soon.

BTW, your “Archives” in your side bar looks like a giant, let’s say, personal massager.

Oh Kim, I am so sorry. I hope it goes away quickly but even more I hope there is someone near to take care of you. It’s hard when there is noone there to touch yoru forehead and bring you toast. At least it is for me. Feel better.

Well, I’m catching up and realizing you are on the mend, now.

Take care…and put on a good movie while you do the laundry. It always helps.

Oh sweetie. We’re all sick again too today. Sore heads and colds. Aren’t you just fed up of it? Bleurghhh.
Hope you’re all well soon and that you get chance to rest.
