Yeurgh.

I have a cold. Becca has diarrhea. My sense of smell, however, is cursedly intact. Thankfully my sense of irony is as well, so even in the midst of my bitterness I was able to have a good chuckle.
Unfortuntately that chuckle set off a chain reaction in my sinuses that resulted in a sensation not unlike having ones head implode.
It’s 11:28am and I’m ready for bed.
Happy weekend everyone.

Oh, the irony. Sorry about your imploding head. I hope you can get lots of sleep and feel better this weekend!

At least your knee didn’t explode.

Ah, stink! Colds are dumb. Why can’t we just find the cure for the common cold and get on with it? Hope you feel better soon,
Heather

Oh sweetie, get well soon. And wear a clothes peg, then your nose won’t drip and you won’t be able to smell anything, erm, yucky. Hugs to you all.

Aw, I hope you all feel better soon! Try plugging your nose up with cotton wool.

Here is a spoonful of sugar to help the medicine go down. Take care.

Erg. I have a cold, too. Then today I had to get a tetanus booster. All those common side effects that are so rare? Guess who has almost all of them? (Waving my hand in the air, tiredly). I’m especially enjoying the nausea. Wheee!

I hope you feel better soon! It sucks to be the mom and be sick too… cause you really can’t just be sick can you?

I wish you could just put a stamp on yourself and have Canada Post bring you to my house. (And I’ll try not to see the irony in the fact that you could probably walk here faster than they could deliver you. They have cute uniforms, but man, are they ever slow.) We could have coffee cake with blueberry filling, and you could rest on the couch while I pack boxes. Entertaining, I know. But at least you’d get a break from poop. =)

speaking of that ironically intact sense of smell, my grandpa broke his nose, and he lost his sense of smell…but only the pleasant odors. He could still smell all the poopy diapers and other disgusting odors. But nothing fragrant. (I swear this is true!)
Sounds like a yucky day at your place, Kim. I hope you both feel better soon!

That’s what you get for getting up in the morning before your kids and having a productive start to the day! You get sick.
Boo! Hiss! Shame on you, wee germs! Go climb up someone else’s sinuses!
(Have you ever tried a saline rinse, by the way?)

Nooooo! Poor poor you. Hope you’re all better very soon x

Oh girlie, I hope you’re feeling better soon. There’s not much worse than a summer cold. Doesn’t seem fair!

Oh no! (But pardon me while I chuckle.)

Hope you are feeling better today and can have a truly relaxing weekend. (((Hugs)))

Oh boy, I hope everyone is on the mend.

Ugh. I hope you’re feeling better! I am stuck at home because my allergies make my head feel like it’s going to explode. The best news? This “cold” lasts all fall for me!
