Oh the Flu

The flu has hit our household. It's been relatively manageable but I can say that because I have not gotten it. I feel horrible for those that have gotten it, and I can tell they feel awful, but it has been more mild than I think it's typically portrayed. We take vitamin C and elderberry syrup which I believe helps. I don't know if I will remain one of the lucky ones that does not get it, or if it's still coming and just not hit me yet! I've been exposed for a full week as of today and not gotten it so I am hopeful. Right now I can say this has not been worth getting the flu shot to avoid. Especially because who knows if this strain they have was even covered in this year's shot? Don't want to get in a flu shot debate here, but at this point even though the flu has certainly hit our house, I am not wishing we'd all gotten the shot. Of course again I don't have it yet, maybe others here would pick a shot over the last week of being sick? Not sure!

Well there isn't much else to say right now as I am busy wiping noses, refilling the humidifier, and cooking anything that sounds good to little ones with not much appetite. This week I am a short order cook! ;)
