Yearly Sickness and House

Since Monday night I have been feeling sick.  Today has been the worst of all of the days.  I cannot move, I am so weak.  My muscles ache, my head feels like it is going to explode, I have the chills, I have a fever, my throat hurts, and everything else. I cannot keep up with Braeden today. Ben worked night shift last night, so he came home and had to sleep.  He was very great and helpful all day when he was awake.  Braeden has been sick too, so he wants to sleep with me or we make a bed on his bedroom floor.  That is really hard on my body because the floor is so hard.  All day Braeden would run around like a tornado and my house was completely destroyed. Braeden somehow opened his cold medicine while I was in the bathtub and he dumped it all over the couch.  Ben came out at that point and helped me. I know he didn't get his full nights sleep, but today has been so difficult that I cannot explain it. I hope that I get better soon. It is so hard to be a mother and be sick.  My mom told me that if she were here she would play with Braeden and make me soup.  I sure wish dreams came true.  That would be delightful for my mom to be here, BUT she has a lot of other people to take care of herself. I will get better soon, but for now I will just lay on the couch and seriously want to die.  Not literally, but that is what it feels like.

ON THE OTHER HAND...

We recently put an offer in on a house.  With some wheeling and dealing, the bank accepted the offer.  We are so excited and cannot wait to have a place of our own that we can make OUR home. We are having a home inspector come out tomorrow and hopefully it is not too long before we can move into our new home.
