its official i've reached delirium: 9 days of the flu song

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8                9
yep that’s where i’m at now.....               way                  over                 here                 ....9
9 days beaten down by this horrible, terrible, no good, very bad flu
well as a few little birdies have told me
lots and lots of you have fallen victim to this vile ickiness
so you can all chime in on this old favorite song

on the first month of 2013 my archenemy gave to me

oh lets just skip to the end
everybody now...

9 miserable symptoms 

{dizziness, headache, chills, deep cough, sore throat, extreme fatigue, burning back, shortness of breath, nose schizophrenia - stuffy or runny, can’t make up its mind}

8 pairs of pajamas 

{i have christmas pjs like its nobody’s business}

7 episodes of downton abbey 

{to wrap up season 3 - once you start you can’t stop}

6 pathetic sickies 

{yep our last survivor fell victim this morning}

5 superheroes 

{thanks mom, aunt rhonda, kelli, amanda, and leslie, couldn’t have survived without you}

4 boxes of frozen waffles 

{breakfast, lunch, and dinner - side anecdote...don’t want to digress too far from this catchy tune, but loved this insightful response from Felicity our 2 year old 

Dad: you want another waffle Felicity?  you’re going to turn into a waffle 

Felicity:  dad, i don’t want to go into the toastah.  its hot in therah’.  i’ll get stuck.}

3 seismic waves 

{thankfully owen was healthy most of this time so we could finish his science fair project: seismic showdown}

2 soup deliveries 

{really no substitute for soup when you’re sick - the stereotype en actuem - now i’m making up latin, hey i’m practically delusional at this point}

and 1 trip to the urgent care 

{where i was additionally diagnosed with bronchitis, yippee, and i get to be on breathing treatments that send me into a jittery frenzy}

so there you have it folks

9 miserable symptoms
8 pairs of pajamas
7 episodes of downton abbey
6 pathetic sickies
5 superheroes
4 boxes of frozen waffles
3 seismic waves
2 soup deliveries
and 1 trip to the urgent care

a classic already
and i've officially reached delirium

here's my miserable failure at the 'dressing up' movement these past 9 days

{spicing things up with some fiery socks and lickable pants}

{some of that homemade #2 made by a #5}

{leaving the house...for school drop off.  only have to look normal from the waist up}

{oh shoes AND no pajamas...too bad these shoes are in the urgent care}

hope to see you on the other side
where my sanity resides

how have you been staying healthy and sane?
or have you joined me in delirium land?
