I'm just getting over a horrible stomach flu.  I've been down and out for three days now with the worst case that I've ever had.  Then, yesterday my computer died too.  dd-Sue worked on it four hours last night and finally got me up and going again.  I think she's going to have to add some memory for me.  She says that I have loads of space but might be running low on memory. 


We're predicted to get 3 to 5 more inches of snow today.  That's on top of the 8+ that we got on Monday, and we already had some on the ground before that.  The kids have been taking good care of me.  ds-Jim was over on Sunday to get all the old snow cleared off the driveway and to be sure my big snowblower is working well.  dd-Cheryl & dgs-Ryan came Monday to clear away the new 8 inches.  dd-Sue came over last night to work on the computer and get the mail in for me - It can be a long walk out to the road when you've been indoors and pretty much in bed for three days. 


Today I have to see if I can get a little order back into my house.  ds-Mike brought up my Christmas tree boxes before they left here on Friday and I started working on the decorations on Saturday.  Then, when the flu bug bit me, I wasn't able to do much and I have boxes and stuff sitting around all over the house.  I just hope nobody stops by and sees the mess.

Kaci--so sorry to hear the bug bit you--no fun at all. You have a wonderful family though and so nice to hear how they come when needed. Don't push yourself too hard to clear away those boxes--if anyone stops in ask them to help :-)
I hope you recover quickly so you can enjoy the holiday preparations and the big day too.
Hugs,
Carol

How are you feeling now? I've heard more about stomach flu this year than the usual upper respiratory version. We had several seniors hospitalized for dehydration from that bug.

hugs,
Jacquie

I was doing fine yesterday and today but tonight I seem to be doing the trot again.
