<p>There is nothing more boring that reading about stomach viruses and nasty colds, so I&#39;ll spare you.&#0160; Just imagine me and my two children passing the viruses back and forth like hot potatoes.&#0160; Then imagine the baby&#39;s fourth and fifth teeth breaking through simultaneously.&#0160; Oh, and don&#39;t forget my garage door breaking, trapping us in the garage for a bit.&#0160; And then when we finally make our escape (to a fun trip to the pediatrician&#39;s on a Saturday morning) discovering that both my front tires are dangerously low on air.&#0160; Cue me having to beg for someone (anyone!) to help me figure out what to do.&#0160; Thank goodness for kind strangers (who still took the last $10 I had in my purse because I felt I had to tip and thought it would be tacky to ask for five bucks back.)&#0160; </p>

<p>(It would&#39;ve been tacky, right?)</p>

<p>Then imagine my husband being far, far away (in Europe), missing all the fun.</p>

<p>This has been going on since Wednesday.&#0160; I&#39;ve lost 3 pounds already.&#0160; Bah.</p>

<p>I do have really exciting news that I can&#39;t wait to share.&#0160; It&#39;s great, trust me.&#0160; But both kids are asleep, and I&#39;m going to join them.</p>

<p>See you next week.&#0160; Be good and wash your hands after you&#39;re done reading.&#0160; I wouldn&#39;t want you to catch this too.</p>
