Chickenpox and A Whole Lot of Blogging Going On

Its been awhile...
Do you ever have those moments when life just seems to get a little out of control and you look around your house and think "I really need to just take a week off to catch up?" I've pretty much had that feeling since we got back from our trip. The funny thing is I was praying about a week ago that God would help me find time in my schedule to catch up on things around here before the holidays. And looking back, I've really got to believe that God has a sense of humor. See, about 3 days ago, I got chickenpox. You read that right. And yes, it sucks, thanks for asking.
Saturday afternoon and most of Sunday I was feeling a little ill. I don't know how to explain it, just achy and tired and maybe a little feverish. On Monday night, I noticed a little spot on my chest and thought I had a bug bite (itchy little bugger). And by Tuesday morning, all hell broke loose all over my body. No, I will not be posting pictures but I can only describe it as the plague of boils. They are everywhere. In my mouth, my throat, in my ears, on the pads of my fingers (yes, typing this sucks, thanks for asking). Forget the itching I've heard all about too because the suckers hurt like there's no tomorrow.
On the bright side, I am quaranteened to the house for the next week until I scab over (I'm sure that will be pretty) which gives me some much needed time to catch up on things. Like blogging. So prepare yourselves, the posts are on their way....
Oh, and since I'm sure you are more worried about the Peanut and Brother, well, she was vaccinated and Rico already had chickenpox as a child so we are safe there. So far, no signs on Brother, but I am sure its just a matter of time. Thankfully, the doctor said that at his age, it probably won't bother him too much and he should recover fairly quickly. I'm just praying the pads of my fingers heal before he breaks out....
