Yucky!!

I have had a sick child all week. Luckily, it was nothing more than a cold, which is great, considering the number of swine flu cases there are in the US right now!! However, being awakened in the wee hours of the morning to the sound of your child coughing and choking on her own phlegm is enough to keep me from even needing any appetite suppressants to lose weight!! The good news is, for the past few days, the drainage has decreased and all that remains is a dry cough, which I can more easily deal with. The moral of this story is: expectorant, expectorant, expectorant!!! I will swear by that stuff!!
