On the MEND...

Photo taken at grandma & grandpa W's house, loving Benji the dog.
I think Mac is finally on the mend...or at least that is my hope!
Every since he had is flu shot over two weeks ago, he has constantly been sick with one thing or another. The last few days we have been fighting severe diaper rash (hence the naked bottom in the picture) due to having diarrhea for at least a week. We have also been dealing with some sort of Jekyll and Hyde syndrome, I am assuming due to when he is and isn't feeling good. But today he seems to be all Mr. Hyde, thank goodness, since Hubs is back at work today. I talked to a nurse this weekend about the big D and she said to get him some Culturelle (probiaotic). He didn't have any other major symptoms of anything, he was eating just fine and wasn't dehydrated or lethargic. So we got some and tried it, after two full days and two doses, we are coming upon something a little more solid in his diapers, which seems to irritate a little less too. We are still doing some "commando" sessions after he does his duty (I don't want to clean that off the floor). And thankfully we have hard floors, so I just rolled up our area rug and off he goes, and I only have to clean up maybe one piddle puddle every time.
But both Mac and I will be glad when the sore bum is totally gone!

YUCK!!!

I have had this nasty head cold since Friday night, and I am about sick of it, REALLY!!! I have gone through a whole entire box of tissue. My nose is raw, although I have been using Puffs PLUS! My stomach is sore from blowing my nose so hard, and I keep choking and gaging on some disgusting stuff! I don't feel at the moment like it is ever going to end, it is four days and counting! I didn't go to work today, and at the moment I am not sure if I am going to go tomorrow. If I do, I will have to wear a face mask all day, and won't be able to breath. And I will have to be running to the break room every 5 minutes to blow my nose, then sanitize my hands. I just don't think I can handle doing that all day. But I will have to see in the morning, maybe I will take some DayQuil.
