Got a spare set of lungs? Anyone?

Monday, February 7, 2011


This is the current state of Casa di Romano.  Thanks to someone who sent their child to school down with the sickness.  Mini-me has infected BDC and me with razorbladelungitis.


Why do people send their children to school sick?  Why do people go to work sick?  Why do people go out in public sick period?  I mean?  Wouldn't we save the general public at large a whole lot of grief if we just stayed in doors until we were well?


I've also made a shocking discovery.  Dimetapp?  yeah..nothing more than purple Koolaid in a medicine bottle that is really overpriced!  It's a pretty good scam they have running.  Here's a tip....if it doesn't taste bad?  It doesn't work.  The worse the medicine tastes....the better it works!


So...I'm off to the store.  Vitamin C, Thera-FLU and Robitussen here I come.  What?  I have to go out.  I know what I said but how else are we going to get well?

There is definitely some nasty stuff going around. The cough that just won't leave! Hope everyone feels better soon.

Ack! Poor girl! And people go out sick because we have this mistaken notion that its a LITTLE cold or cough and we need to be TOUGH. It sucks to be tuff.

I know it sounds really weird but I have a secret for Belly....vicks on the bottom of her feet and then put on socks before she goes to bed. It will work magic! Works on LiL Duck all the time. I am amazed!!!!

And that razorbladelungitis stuff is right up there with boogerlickeritis...it all blows big green gooey chunks!

Since I am the only one in my family sick, so far, I'm pretty sure I got it from one of the kids in my class. It's unbelieveable how many parents send their kids to school and say just tell your teacher if you don't feel better.

I can't remember when I felt this bad!
Dr. said Mucinex, plently of fluids and she really stressed that part.

Hope you all feel better soon!!

lol! dimetapp is a joke! for reals!

and some of us have bosses that will EXPLODE if we call in sick. it is so stupid. SO STUPID. it would be a whole lot smarter if kids and adults just stayed at home when they were sick. DOY! it is a vicious cycle, and we all get caught up in it. blergh!

hope everyone is well soon! :)

Oh man! So sorry that the house is sick. I HATE when people bring sick kids around. HATE it! I hope everyone is feeling better soon.

Nothing less fun than a household with a bug. Hope you're all on the mend soon.

Ooh... I'm sorry that you picked up a kid disease. Those are tough to battle.

And yeah, Dimetapp is kind of like that blanket from our childhood we keep around. As adults, we know it does nothing and should probably be thrown away. But, damn it it's medication nostalgia! :P
