The good, the bad, the ugly

The good: Mr Lemon is unexpectedly home for the day.
The bad: He's at death's door with the flu.
The ugly: I don't think I have to describe the particulars for this section.

The good: Zesty was very good today ...
The bad: ... at the doctor's office and at the hospital ...
The ugly: ... the doctor is making sure his croup isn't turning into pneumonia, so he had a chest x-ray.

The good: Zesty enjoyed carrying around his little basketball through the hospital.
The bad: He dropped it a few times.
The ugly: If he isn't sick now, he will be soon since he kept chewing on the basketball after he dropped it.

The good: I've been doing a 1 mile Walk Away The Pounds workout the past couple of days.
The bad: I don't feel obligated to do one today, since I walked throughout the hospital carrying 17 pounds of wiggly baby.
The ugly: The fact that I've gained all my baby weight BACK plus a few extrys that slipped in unawares.

The good: The election is over.
The bad: The election is over.
The ugly: The election is over.

Sis - I feel for you! The flu made it's rounds in our home this past weekend and it was exactly that - it was bad and it was ugly but the good was that everyone caught up on some much needed sleep! lol!
Take care of yourself! Hope to see you in church tonight.

Oh, my goodness. Sounds like you are truly having fun over there.

I am sorry your men are sick. Makiah used to get croup every fall/winter sometimes twice. Fortunately she grew out of that.

Praying that everyone gets better quickly.

I am sorry the Lemons are feeling sour these days. I hope you are able to keep the epizooties at bay! Vitamin C! Vitamin C!

Please make sure that you don't pass around "Germs Of Endearment". One time, you momma & I passed around an illness for weeks. It was like a tennis match.

Sounds like a big day at the Lemon household. Nice summary. I hope everyone gets better.

Love the nick names for the kids. I have two nieces with childhood diabetes, so hard.

I loved my babies to sleep every nap and every night. I'm glad I did cause me baby's are all grown up now it went so fast and I miss my snuggle time.

Yikes. It does not sound like it's a fun time in the Lemon house.

Mr. Nathan is messed up right now too. I'm not sure if it's the teeth or something else. He may be visiting his doctor tomorrow too.
