Happy New Year! *sorta*

I've already blown the healthy New Year...big time!

Let me start this saga on the 31st. Rob was supposed

to go do Readings and Healings at a party way down

below D.C., about 100 miles away. We awoke to find the

power out! He needed to mapquest his route, so after

getting a good fire going and chopping enough wood for

Robbin and I to stay warm, he went over to Mikey's to

shower (no power = no water, no pump!) and get ready

for his " gig " . He was very worried about leaving us. I

told him I'm a big girl and can take care of us, so

go, have fun! I had a 9 lb. leg of lamb to cook, so

before he left I had him set up the grill, I put the

lamb in a roaster and set it in to cook on as low a

heat as I could. BTW it turned out AWESOME and only

took about 1 1/2 Hours to cook, now a 9 lb. leg should

take at least 3 hours in the oven so I'm glad I was

keeping an eye on it!

So, Off Rob goes...Power came back on at about 1, and

cable at about 5, so I let Robbin stay up till

midnight to see 2007 come in, then off to bed!Now,

however, even though the power was back on, the water

wasn't. The pump needed priming and I had No Clue how

to do it.

Ok, it is the morning of the 1st. Robbin wakes up. I

hear him downstairs, he is coughing, gagging...I had

him come in with me, he is quite ill. I don't know if

it was stomach flu, which he could have been exposed

to, or e-coli, since he had eaten some salad the day

before. He lies down with me and goes to sleep, but

first he dribbled some saliva on my shoulder (eewww).

Well, about an hour later, while he was still sleeping

next to me, my stomach went berserk. I barely made it

to the kitchen and, well, made a mess in the sink

(with the water out there had been no flushing and I

was damned if I was going to hang my face over that

toilet!!!). I have never had anything take me down so

hard, so fast, so totally. I have never ever heaved

that intensely! At one time I was heaving so hard I

could not catch my breath...so as I tried to keep from

passing out, I think the only thing that gave me the

stamina to Not pass out was the thought that they'd

find me *out* on the kitchen floor, covered with puke

and stark nekkid (I didn't have time to put on

anything on my way there, it hit too fast)...I spent

the rest of the day sleeping, waking, spewing and

pooping (of course the lower end had to have it's say

about this!). Finally Rob came home to a total mess!

Both of us sick, no water, spew in the sink, and

Robbin's bed a total mess (apparently he blew big time

in it before he came downstairs). He got the water

going. Both of us were severely dehydrated so we both

had water to drink. I had some o.j. in the fridge but

I wasn't sure if adding acid to the mix in out tummies

would not make it worse. Then we started feeling

better, but it has still taken till today to be back

on our feet! I;m still not sure about Robbin, I don't

think he has eaten anything, he says he has but there

is no evidence in the kitchen. So I gave him some

saltines, he is eating them. YAY!

I am actually drinking coffee, so far so good, I had

nothing to eat or drink except for water and 4

saltines all day yesterday, so coffee is a total

upgrade...

Anyway, I hope that does not bode disaster for the

rest of the year!

Peace and Blessings

helped.

{{{Akiba}}}

Wow!! I know you were sick! I hope it wasn't something too serious. Sending you prayers and good wishes,

My daughter and her babies came over on Christmas day. They were all sick. Now, it seems I'm paying for it. Don't get me wrong...I love my children more than anything in the world. But, this particular daughter takes everything so personal. I keep telling her that when she is sick, and her children are sick, that is not the time to come visiting. She acts as though I'm trying to keep her babies from getting to know their grandmother. She has even told me that she always knew I didn't love children. Good grief!! I really raised a smart one there. I had to remind her that if I didn't love children, she would still just be a twinkle in somebody's eye.

I'm so out of it today...My fiance said I look like I'm moving in slow motion. I wonder if this think you and Robbin caught is going around, or what. I seem to be hearing a lot of this kind of stuff through quite a lot of people.

I really do hope you have a speedy recovery.

I'm sorry you're sikky, too, Rob is now also under the

weather, not too bad, but he has a bad headache. I

think some of it is the psychic sludge he took from

the people Sunday...eeww...he's taken some motrin and

taking a nap..while I'll go into runescape LOL...

Take care of yourself now! Ya'hear!

Happy New Year! *sorta*

I've already blown the healthy New Year...big time!

Let me start this saga on the 31st. Rob was supposed

to go do Readings and Healings at a party way down

below D.C., about 100 miles away. We awoke to find the

power out! He needed to mapquest his route, so after

getting a good fire going and chopping enough wood for

Robbin and I to stay warm, he went over to Mikey's to

shower (no power = no water, no pump!) and get ready

for his " gig " . He was very worried about leaving us. I

told him I'm a big girl and can take care of us, so

So, Off Rob goes...Power came back on at about 1, and

cable at about 5, so I let Robbin stay up till

midnight to see 2007 come in, then off to bed!Now,

however, even though the power was back on, the water

wasn't. The pump needed priming and I had No Clue how

to do it.

Ok, it is the morning of the 1st. Robbin wakes up. I

hear him downstairs, he is coughing, gagging...I had

him come in with me, he is quite ill. I don't know if

it was stomach flu, which he could have been exposed

to, or e-coli, since he had eaten some salad the day

No, he just dumped bleach on it and used the sink-hose

to wash it down the drain...

Thank you nne~

I think I'll be all right. I'm trying real hard to stay positive, and away from others who may not be feeling well. Of course, I would not want to give anyone something I might be carrying.

I hope you are doing well. God bless...

He does, and yes, we're all better (ok, almost, I

still have yet to venture into eating a

meal-land...)(Does this mean I haven't had a meal all

year ROFL)(SO why am I not losing weight????)

Sounds like your flu was even worse then mine...when

it hits, it HITS, wherever you are! Glad I was home

not out!

And Yes, I did have coffee today...so that much is

good...
