We have all had the flu or something going on. I am about ready to beat my head against the wall. I CAN NOT get my family healthy. Just got T healthy Autumn brings crap home. T gets sick again then Rich then Hope and now me. It is nasty crap. Sore throat, body ache, fever, head pounding like no other, stuffed up or runny nose. So everyone is feeling better but me. I ended up calling in Sun & Mon to work and that really sucked because Rich was sick for 1 week out of work & of course no work = no money. My parents wanted to help but I don't want them here to expose them. Especially my mom with her Diabetes when she gets sick it takes her forever to get over it and it is twice as bad. All I could do was lay in bed so I decided to send Hope to them for a few days. I felt really guilty not being able to care for her & the older 2 were in school & can care for themselves. Rich took her Mon afternoon as he had a Chiro appt. Why yes his back went out along with all this going on also.
I figured they would keep her Mon & Tues & Wed I could go get her. I spoke with her this morning asking if she was ready to come home telling her I missed her like crazy her response was "I miss you to, I will be home in a minute but not today, I am staying another night" hmmm ok then. I think she ran away from home. She absolutely loves her grandparents and my dad will play with her endlessly. He hooked the tire swing up to the big tree and they had been out swinging away. She informed me she had to go because she had a fudge cycle waiting for her. looks like we are another day without her. I know she is in great hands and having a ball. They will bring her up when I get off work Thurs. I am feeling better. Still not great but better.
Brandi is home for good now and I am sure Kaycee went over to play today plus my parents are anxious to meet Mckinlee as we all are.
I went to sign the older 2 up for summer 4-H classes they each take 3 classes plus Autumn teaches a class with Katie. The 4-H leaders really want Autumn to be a camp counselor. They go for 2 days to Alpine. I think I am going to let her do it and let Tymber go up to the camp. I was really hesitant because I didn't know much about it and didn't feel good sending them with people I don't know but after speaking with the 4-H office it is just Bingham county that goes and the leaders are all people that work in the office and I know. So I am good letting them go. It will be fun for them. In case anyone is wondeing yes Autumn is still grounded.:-)

See you tell everybody about my grades and my personal life. I would really appreciate it if you would talk to me before you do things like this are whole family doesn't need to know about every detail you should know that what is said in the murray houshold stays in the murray's housold.
Don't kids say the funniest things????
Love ya and hope that you get better - hope it's not the swine flu!!!
OH MY GOODNESS!!! You guys are still sick?? Seriously - I would be sick to death of it too!
In all of this "swine flu" pandemic, I've read some good things.
Have different tooth paste tubes for each member of the family. Change toothbrushes.
Wash hands more often. As soon as we come home, that is the first thing we do is wash our hands to the song" Happy Birthday or Twinkle, Twinkle little star. -- make them wash before dinner, before bed... lots of washing hand - lots of reminders to do it.. Get the hand gel for school.
I'd probably start changing the sheets of my beds every day or every other day.
A new towel each time someone showers. Don't share a towel. Paper towels in the bathrooms for washing hands - then throw away.
I know - lots of laudry..
I would use clorox clean-up every day - twice a day on sinks and fictures. You can dilute regular clorox in a spray bottle - that works too.. Maybe 4 / 1 (the 1 being the clorox and 4 being water)(tell Autumn to do this and then email me and I'll send her a surprise in the mail for helping out)
Plastic cups for drinking that you throw away after each drink. Kleenex tissues in every room with a garbage can that is emptied daily with a tissue that catches every sneeze.
Yes... I know I am a germ-a-phob... but to be sick this long and to NOT have my baby with me would push me over the edge.
Oh... and another tip I read was no second helpings at dinner unless you have a new plate.. The serving spoon shouldn't touch a germ infested used dinner plate that is using a serving spoon for the 2nd helping - which infect the rest of the food.
I sure hope you get well soon.. Oh - and I would clorox wipe/spray every door knob and light switch too - make Tymber do it.. Tell her Aunt Sondra told her to do it. Tell her to email mail me when she does and I'll send her a surprise in the mail.
Good luck! AND GET WELL!
