Things to do while sick with the flu

So school finally gets back into session, and I wanted to start a routine. Of course, that is when we all come down with the flu! I think this one was the real thing! 5-7 days, high fever, cough, sore throat, congestion, runny nose. The WORKS. Mark started it, the whole department at work had it. Then myself, then all four kids the same day (Saturday). Thankfully Mark was well enough to take care of the five of us on Saturday and Sunday, when I couldn't hardly raise my head!

Yesterday I felt much better, and the girls were starting too also. I pulled out the Hide-a-bed, made a camp-out complete with humidifier, and watched chick flicks most of the day. To combat boredom after those, Katrina brought out a "make-up" kit we had purchased her for her birthday. So we played dress up while Mason slept for almost 5 hours. If you know Mason, you know that means he was REALLY sick!

The finished products are shown below! Hope everyone got their flu shots this year, it's a bugger!Taylor tried to get on the act. Got Blue fingers and one eye. The other eye is natually colored black and blue from all his falls the past week! Watch out for those claws! Princess ones even. Caroline is Pretty in Pink!
Katrina chose blue for her eyes. Actually didn't turn out too bad!

Can you tell I've been sick? I look like a 70's disco druggie.
