This Little Piggy Went Down… Hard!
Hello fair friends of blogland. I hope you will excuse my absence, I have a doctors note (really I do). This is my first official day out of bed. That’s right I’ve got the Swine! flu that is.
I was having an awesome weekend, my BFF Erin flew up to the country to hang out. We did each others hair (see above) painted each others nails, went shopping and were engaging in general creative debauchery when all of the sudden I just didn’t feel so good. Boo. Being scared to death of doctors, I did what I always do; a couple swigs of DayQuil and on with my business. That will generally solve any ailment I have but this time it didn’t work. So, a trip to the clinic and $1000 worth of prescription drugs later I am laid up with the Swine flu, the regular flu and strep throat. That’s right kids, quarantine. I can see no one, I can’t leave my house and I have been sleeping 23 hours a day. Please excuse me if you haven’t had any response to your emails or your calls have gone unanswered. I will get back to you as soon as I can. Promise.

What horrible news! I hope you are on the mend now . . . sucks to be sick, but must really suck to be sick when you can’t see anyone. My sister-in-law was confirmed a week ago with H1N1 - it took 10 days to get the results! Sure knocks a person down . . . but let’s hope that everyone recovers and carries on. All the best to you and take care of yourself. - Marlene

Send out frequent emails requesting what you need. Really. LOTS of stuff can be crammed into a priority mail box. I go to the Post Office daily. Get lots of sleep and watch dvds. Poor Tula.

I’m sorry that you’re sick! I couldn’t help but laugh at your line “I’ve got the swine!” Ever since the swine came about I’ve thought about saying that if I ever got it. Take care and be better soon :o)

Oooh… that is sooo awfull! Thank goodness for internet so you can still read up on everybody else whilst in quarantine ! That is, once you start feeling a little better and I hope that is really soon!
