Simply Nothing

I suppose that I am really off to a good start at keeping the year simple, because I simply didn't post on my blog for a month!  Oops!  I have nothing to say for myself except to say that I just had nothing to say.  Hopefully starting with a new month, I will also have a new outlook and more to talk about.

Thanks for sticking around while I took a little unscheduled hiatus.  

I thought I would give a quick update on what has been going on in my world the last few weeks to catch you up on all the "fun" you missed out on with my lack of posting.

Ian was sick so I was off work two days.
I was sick, off work another two days.
Back to work for three days.
Ian was sick again, off work another day.
I am still sick, trying to work although I feel like poo.

That pretty much sums up the last two weeks of my life.  I have been off work a lot, dealt with a lot of fevers, gone through more boxes of tissues than I care to think about, and worst of all had to administer countless doses of medication to an unwilling child.

Giving Ian medicine should be a post in of itself.  There are no contortions of the body that can contain all this flailing limbs and pry his mouth open at the same time.  I won't even describe the horror that is giving that child eye drops for the pink eye he contracted while sick.  It has been an exercise in patience and flexibility. 

Thankfully we are on the mend.  I am on day two of a new antibiotic which promises to kill my ear infection for good, and Ian is half done with his course of medication as well. 

I am hoping for a very healthy, and full of things to post about, February.
