Recipe for the Flu

Eric posted several recipes last night to the family recipe blog. I must say he inspired me to post my own "recipe" for the flu!...See, I'm complaining again!
*You must wear the same t-shirt at least two days in a row
*Don't even bother with deodorant, it's really not that important
*Be sure to wear your Uggs for the shivers, they really help take care of that
*Put baby Uggs on your daughter, she is surely feeling your pain too!
*Allow your child to nose dive off a piece of furniture (glad to see those lessons on sliding off are working)
*Next, allow anyone and everyone to come and take care of you. YOU ARE SICK!
*Suggest chicken noodle soup for dinner, but don't you make it, allow husband to be creative and figure it out on his own. He may just enjoy himself in the process.
*It's imperative that you place soda bottles on your head to cool it off, wash clothes are overrated!
*If sister is trying to lose weight and needs a quick way to do it, be sure to let her drink after you and cough on her every chance you get!
*It's important to brush your teeth at least once...you don't want to gross your husband out!
*By the night of day 2 a shower may be required, don't be offended when your husband says"remember to wash your feet, you've been walking around on dirty floors for two days."
*Floors may be dirty along with rest of house, you have been sick and have not had time for housework.
*If you decide to shower, shaving is optional, the deciding factor is going to be the time it will take for you to shower again? 2 days? 3 days? Dare I say 4?
*It's ok to wear the same sweat pants after the shower, but do not put on that shirt that you have been wearing for 2 1/2 days, ladies, that is just taking it too far!
*When husband is home, its ok to take the drowsy medication, he can watch the baby!
*Don't bathe child for two days either, you just don't have time in between the soda drinking and sleeping!
*And finally, its normal to be moody and emotional, you are sick, and its about you!

Enjoy being sick while you can - when you get sick with 3 children you never get to really get into it and enjoy it, too much going on! I hope you get better quick. (Very funny blog)

So first off, I laughed my butt off at Eric's recipes. I am of the opinion he should post everyday, it's a lot more fun. Second, I loved this post. I hate that you are sick, don't get me wrong. I laughed just as much at all of these things, cause you can't help but go...yeah I do that. Hilarious people you are. So I have experienced me and Gabe being sick at separate times, but not together. I don't envy that. I'm sorry. If there is anything I can do from Nevada, you make sure to let me know.
