Twice each year the girls go off to visit their dad and while I absolutely miss them like crazycakes I try to make the best of the time by enjoying a much, much slower pace with just Jeff and Jayce. We tend to do a lot of shopping and eating out seeing as how those things are greatly complicated when you add three more kiddos to the mix.
They’re only gone for seven days this time. And wouldn’t you know that both Jeff and I have been sick and confined to the house for the last two days. Figures doesn’t it?
On the bright side, Jeff works for a wonderful company that recognizes the entire week between Christmas and New Years as holiday time. So we’re hanging out at home watching movies and blowing our noses in unison. Lovely, no? But at least he’s not having to take any sick time off of work.
You know me, always looking on the bright side right?
So, I just wanted to check in and let you all know that I haven’t disappeared into a post-Christmas funk. I’m alive and well. Looking forward to this nasty sickness passing. Hope all is well in your little corners of the world.

Sounds like you sure miss your gals, but hopefully you can feel better soon and enjoy the one on one time with Jayce and Jeff, too! I had that crud over Christmas, too, but seemed to get over it pretty quickly! Thanks for stopping by and may you also have a safe New Years!
Sorry your sick…but at least you have hubby to be sick with and can enjoy those movies! Praying for you! God Bless and get well
well soon.
Get well soon! That doesn’t sound like fun at all! Especially both of you at the same time!
Wishing you lots of rest and a speedy recovery…
So sorry y’all are sick! Hope it doesn’t last too long so you and the Hubby enjoy some time together!
Oh that’s got to be hard with the girls gone for so long over the holidays. I hope that you guys are feeling better soon and can enjoy some of your time together though! :)
Hopefully you all feel better soon to enjoy the time. Must have been all that playing in the snow ;-)
Hope you both feel better soon. I had it the whole week before Christmas & I’m still blowing my nose!!
Didn’t get to talk to you on Christmas, but hope you had a great day.
I hope that you feel better quickly and enjoy your week!
Feel better soon!
Poor Darcie and Jeff! I’ll bet the sickness makes missing the girls all the more difficult…I usually get all weepy when I’m sick.
They’ll be home before you know it, and the colds will be gone, and everything will return to it’s normal state.
Happy New Year!
Get better soon! Dave and I had 3 days just like that. No fun stuck in bed for 3 days sharing a box of kleenex. The boys, however, like the freedom to watch tv and play electronic games without parent-set boundaries! Again, have a cup of hot tea and get well for the New Year!
I hope you both feel better soon!!!
