Sick

The other day I read the title of a post on Smart Not Cheap that made me laugh: "Rumors of my blog death are greatly exaggerated...." I'm glad Michelle is still blogging over there because I enjoy reading what she has to say.

When I read that title, I realized that I have not posted here for quite some time now. Given my track record with writing, it's pretty much a given that this blog of mine will die sooner or later. But today is not the day.

The last couple of weeks here have seemed long and tiring. First Drew was sick with a cold followed by an ear infection. Then Gracie got sick with the same thing (minus the ear infection). Finally, the day after both children were finally well, my husband got it. I am still trying to catch up with everything that didn't get done around the house while I was taking care of sick children.

When Gracie was at the doctor's office last week, I asked the pediatrician for his opinion on flu shots. He said he thinks they are beneficial. I ask him his opinion every year, and get a similar answer every year, but so far I have never taken my children for a flu shot. Sometimes I wish I wasn't responsible for making decisions like this. I guess I need to get busy and do some research on flu shots.
