It Feels so Good to Feel Good Again!

Well, as many of you know, the H1N1 has infested our home. I started feeling bad last Saturday. I managed to hold my head up long enough to fix Danielle and Amber's hair for a wedding, but after that I was done! I did not get out of the bed until Monday, and that was only long enough to go to the Dr. I have never felt so miserable in my whole life. My body ached all over and no matter how I positioned myself it hurt. Yuck! Camryn began to run a fever on Tuesday, but she never really showed any other signs besides coughing. I waited until Friday to take her to the Dr. b/c she didn't act sick. I was shocked to see that she was positive for the flu. Oh my, I felt like a horrible mother!
All the time I spent quarantined in my own room didn't keep her from contracting the flu. I'm just thankful that it did not effect her the same way as me. My time being quarantined and away from the rest of the world really made me appreciate my life. It made me thankful to have a job to wake up to each morning. It mostly made me thankful for relationships. The most interaction I got with anyone was via facebook, email, or texts. No personal contact is for the birds! I'm a touchy feely kind of gal, and I need my physical contact whether it be a pat on the back, huh, or sweet kiss. I often take these things for granted, but no more! I know what life is like wihtout them, and I don't want to go there again!
Finally, the flu is gone, and Cam is even feeling better and without a fever. I can actually say that I am so excited to be able to hug and kiss Cam and Brent once again. I even quite excited to go back to work on Monday even though I'm going to feel lost and overwhelmed. I know that I'll have the BEST assistant and friend there to help me. I love you Sandy! Thank you everyone for the cards, emails, calls, texts, and sweet gifts. I have the most kind and thoughtful friends in the world!
