Did I Mention I’m Sicker Than a Dog?

February 11, 2011
Have we ever talked about how I don’t know how to be sick?
Like how I don’t know how to be productive when I’m sick…
Or how I think I can still do everything on my calender when I’m sick…
Or how I forget what day of the week it is when I’m sick…
Or how {unlike most sickies who lose their appetite}
I eat fast food three times a day when I’m sick…
Or how I look like a gargoyle when I’m sick…
Or how I fail at all my “wifely duties” when I’m sick…
No, I haven’t mentioned that before?

My house becomes chaos when I’m sick.
And right now I AM SICK.
And so is the hubby,
and so is the baby.

And this is what our house looks like when its sick:

This is on top of my dresser.


This is my nightstand–that’s my Jumbo Diet Pepsi with a shot of Dr. Pepper, and yes, those are my used tissues.


Here is one of many laundry piles that can be found in every room of the house.


Here is another {how about the irony of the pillow, huh}.


And here is another–except these are clean, because that’s how I put away the hubby’s clean clothes when I’m sick {or even when I’m not sick, oops}.


Here is the closest my bed has gotten to being made all week.


Here is what our unmade bed looks like today.


Check out the elephant humidifier on the night stand–a must when sick.


My kitchen table with greasy leftover chips from another fast food meal–because fast food always helps you overcome being sick, right?


And we have officially run out of toilet paper,
and are using baby wipes instead…which makes me think:
 why don’t I use baby wipes every day?
They are oh-so-soft with just the right amount of cucumber fragrance.


And this is where our poopy diapers live–because when I am sick, the trash can is just too far away.


And still no pedicure.


But I did make time for ONE worthwhile activity yesterday.
I packed up Baby W and walked to our local Trader Joe’s to get all the fixins for a healthy meal.
I loaded them up in my new
Burlap Market Tote from All Things Vintage,
and I walked home with good intentions of cooking some soup.



And then we had Taco Bell for dinner,
{Mexican pizza, no meat, add lettuce x 2}
instead of the soup,
which I never cooked.
