Sick again!

Snag Only Please

DS is sick again. I don't know what's up with him. This is the first time he has been sick in 6 years. I've always been lucky because no one in our house ever really gets sick except for my DH. We originally thought maybe he had a 24 hour bug cause he ended up getting sick after camping out this past Friday. Well, Sunday he told us he was feeling better but because he was running a fever on Saturday we didn't let him go out and play with anyone else. Anyway, he did feel like shopping & who am I to deprive him of what I love to do ... SHOP!!! =D Ok, so while we're at lunch he was scratching his wrist ... I saw a bite & asked him what happened. He said he thought an ant had bit him when he was sleeping out ... DH looked at the bite & said it was to big to be an ant bite. We now believe that whatever bit him is what's causing his to feel sick. He said he pinched a lot of liquid out of it. I checked it this morning & it's healing nicely ... but, we don't know what bit him & now he's sick again. Actually I'm not at all sure he was better yesterday but he wasn't running a fever so I couldn't very well make him stay inside when he didn't have a fever two days in a row. Today though ... he's got a fever 102.6!

Both kids are a little upset by DS being sick cause today we were going to the pumpkin farm for a field trip ... now we have to move the time back. It's no big deal cause the place is open until the 1st of November. So DS is in bed sleeping ... DD is taking a break from school work to read, DH is working & I'm sitting here not feeling so groovy myself. Maybe after DD is done with all her school work I will go back to bed too.

Bug bites are scary- Hope it is just a lingering 24 "bug" - I like the orange background today! Dannelle

UGH. So sorry for DS being sick and you feeling under the weather. I spent yesterday just laying around, not feeling great and today looks like a repeat. Let's all get better OK.
Hugs, Joyce

I really hope he starts to feel better soon - it stinks when kids are sick - just seems to slow down life - you know what I mean!!!
take care--Ellie

That's a shame, Emmi. I'd get that checked out because bug bites can be pretty vicious. Hope he feels better soon. HUGS

Could be a spider bite...those are so nasty. I hope he is feeling better soon, so he can get back to having fun again.

You get some rest, too, before you get sick!

Pooh Hugs,
