Sick Day Together

For seven years, Rob and I had a great system when it came to illness. Simply, we would never be sick at the same time. That way he could go for nyquil and soup at the store when I was tucked in bed and I could fetch him juice when he was sniffly.

Apparently, married people get sick together…on the same day. Insanity. The system is not set up for such a disaster. Who will make the soup?

All this to say, we’re taking the day off. Have a great weekend!

Next Post: Congratulations!

we got the flu last year at the same time, no fun. hopefully you have some nice local friends who can bring over some soup.
my parents never tire of telling me the story about when i was a baby and they both got sick and were trying to get the other person to take care of me!

Oh no – that's not fun! Hope that you feel better soon…I was really sick in NYC once & my friend didn't want to leave me so we ordered in matzo ball soup, crackers and even ginger ale! The wonders of living in a big city…you can get everything delivered, even a cup of soda! Hope that you have some friends who will drop some food by.

Feel better! Lie in bed together and sniffle and read good books.

I remember you mentioned you like John Robshaw bedding a while back and I saw that there is a lot of it on eBay right now. Good browsing material for someone sick in bed. 🙂
