Forgive me for not realizing. That was a horrible thing to have happened.
Sorry I have not been around. I have gotten the flu. Bless my grands for sharing.
I will bid you all a good night 🌙 now. Sweet Dreams.

Did your grands have the flu also, Carol? I mean did they have it before their parents or after you watched them the other day?

First, Henry got it, he got sick last Satuday while spending the night here. His parents had to come get him it was so bad. Then a few days later his sisters and his parents had it. Now is my turn...We are hoping that the stomach discomfort Rod had last Friday was not greasy fish but a slight version of this flu. The kids are here 2 days a week. Then Henry is here for a couple of hours on those 2 nights. So they got it first. School is great good for that.

Why yes we had. We had ours in the first part of October and the kids had theirs a bit after that.......but the vaccines only last so long as I understand it. And perhaps we got " lucky" and found a strain that the shots did not cover....

Junie did you all get diagnosed with the flu? Any idea where the grands contracted it?

It sounds like your flu shots worked. They won't. Stop everything but the make what does come through much lighter, sort of. That would be my preferred way to get the flu. Sleep well all,

Gastro runs non stop in the schools and day care. I don't think the flu shot covers it.

Thanks, Tina. I hope you are right!
I think this came from poor Henry at his preschool. He had a slight fever for 2 days but no symptoms. Said he felt good. So he more than likely contaminated his family. Then we kept the girls Wed. & Thurs. and all of them Saturday and Saturday night. The last day is when Henry finally got sick.
A tip. These new HG washers DO NOT get vomit out of comforters. I went to the local laundromat after the first washing but the 2 machines that were large enough were both in use. I came home and in the end after washing the comfort 3 times on the power wash cycle it was finally clean enough to put back on the bed. Mind you I said clean enough. It looks ok but I wonder.....
I tried to buy a regular machine but was told they were not sold any more. My machine at home may have been 25 years old, but I wish I had of kept it.

Gastro is a better word for it, I guess. But most people around call it flu. We used to say stomach flu but it's been shortened. And most times I am thinking people mean influenza "flu". We get lazy. And it all causes confusion.

I bought a top loader too . I found bending over to load and unload my 2 daughters side loaders hurts my back. Mine has a huge drum. Lot of good that does me..and I even have an over-ride button so it will add 14 inches of water instead of 7 inches of water. What man thought that we could clean very many clothes in 7 inches of water ? I used the 14 inch option most of the time but still the clothes do not clean as well as I would like. my DH says he thinks they wash so long because there is not much water.. I was not diagnosed (seen by a Dr.) with the flu but we all had it and we all think that is what it was.

My washer has an over ride that fills the drum to the top Junie. Yet, that setting takes the longest to wash of all the cycles....it makes no sense.

Well, they called for rain today and it didn't happen. Here at least. Tomorrow for sure. Being the first day of spring it sounds nice. Jonni is out shopping for me.

Sorry for the impending snow storm. Look at it this way Sunny. If it is "technically spring" here, your spring cannot be far behind.

It's noon and I haven't done anything. Still in my pajamas and can't seem to get motivated. Really I have done one thing - Shelley made me a pound cake and I've eaten a piece of it. We've had our grass cut twice already. We've had so much rain and then it gets warm a day or two and then the grass grows out of control. It's just crazy. It's been chilly, wet, and extremely windy the last 2 days. We didn't get any snow this year.
