Spring Break From Hell

I had all these plans for our spring break week…especially since it’s been like 75 every single day.  I was going to plan play dates with the kids friends, go to the park, watch movies, etc.  However, all we have been doing is staying put in the house with me laying in the fetal position.  I woke up Saturday morning throwing up, body aches, chills, fever, the whole shebang.  Laid in bed all day long, didn’t eat a single piece of food, and basically slept the majority of the time.  Sunday I woke up feeling relatively good and thought maybe it was a 24 hour deal.  Got dressed and headed to dinner with my kids, husband and the kids great grandma where I spent the entire time in the car because it was NOT a 24 hour deal.

So where did I get this nasty bug?  I’m thinking the Marshmallow Drop I took the kids to on Good Friday.  What’s the “Marshmallow Drop”?  Basically you go to this gigantic park and a helicopter comes and drops bag after bag of marshmallow’s for the kids to find (20,000 marshmallows, to be exact).  I’m thinking they packed a little more than just marshmallows in those bags!  Just kidding!  Well sort of.  I mean 3 other people who went to the SAME marshmallow drop at the SAME time got sick with the SAME thing.  Coincidence?  I think not. 😉

Today I played 2 straight hours of Star Wars on the X-box with my son.  So while it may not be the Spring Break I envisioned, I know Zachary had a blast playing that with me AND went to bed begging me to play it with him again tomorrow.  Awww!!!
