5 Day Weekend

What comes to mind when you think of a FIVE day weekend is probably a bit different than our sad yet oh-so-true reality. Seriously! We wanted to have BIG plans for all those days off. Catch a movie, stay at a hotel, swim, hang out with friends, maybe go out of town. Anything out of the house. But was it so????....... NNNNOOOOO!

Our ENTIRE family ended up spending our nice long weekend downing pain reliever, cough medicine, wrapped up in bed, close to a barf bucket and watching more movies than we can possibly count. Believe me... we tried! [To say nothing of our sump pump dying & my sick hubby spent day one in a water hole. ARGGG!] Poor little family! Not to mention the sheer boredom for those that recovered quicker than the others. It's been a rough Winter to say the least! Now, majority of the fam is at least out of bed but in desperate need of a box of tissues taped to their sleeve. Runny noses and endless coughs- you gotta be kidding!
