Illness strikes the Land of Nod

I am so ill today. To make the most of it I sent Joe to pick up PF Changs (hee hee any excuse right?) Well, we got green beans and hot and sour soup at least. It makes you feel better!
I was not feeling the steak and gravy originally on the menu for this evening.

So just to be clear according to my past posts P F Changs makes great bandages for wounds fresh from losing gnome hunts. Great for anytime you don't want to cook. Is a celebration must, and now a cure all for illness! I think we have covered it is my favorite go to place.

I seriously think that I might have the flu. Ironically Olivia goes for her flu shot in the morning. I have such mixed emotions about giving that to my children, that is another discussion for another time, too ill tonight.


I got this from Leigh @ Bloggeritaville, one of my favorite blogs! Again since I am so sick tonight this is going to be it for now.
