Sick? Sick!!

Seeing Erin in Seattle.....great. Finally, witnessing Wicked.....priceless. Eating at Claim Jumpers.....heavenly. Going to the furniture store to see Erin's soon-to-be couches.....comical. Afraid of seriously losing my guts (whatever "guts" actually is) while having diarrhea and puking in the furniture store bathroom.....could have done without it. Seeing Josh and Erin's faces when they saw my blotchy skin, blood shot eyes, swelling ankles, pale face and detatched expression....hilarious (too bad I wasn't in any mood to laugh). Convulsing with uncontrollable shaking for two hours.....painful. Paying a lot of money to go to an emergency room out-of-state....could have done without that one too. Benedryl through an IV.....again, heavenly. Having an 8 month pregnant sister following ME into the emergency room.....now you may all start cracking up.
Thanks to Erin for taking care of me when I was supposed to be taking care of her. Thanks to Josh who very chivorously drove me where I needed to go and stayed at the hospital when I knew he wanted to just go and get those dang couches already!! I love family. I would say that I owe Erin one, but here's the great thing about this family.....we don't keep score. I will help any of them whenever they need it and they will help me when I need it. Thanks so much Erin and Josh! For taking care of me and being bright lights in our family. Congratulations on little Justin!
