Day just went down the tubes...

I'll be whining for a moment here.  Today was my Christmas with the kids and g'kids.  "Was" is the operative word in that statement.  My SIL and 2 of the g'kids are dropping like flies with a stomache bug and, well, you know what happens when that occurs.

DD is furious with her DH's sister because she brought her sick child to Christmas breakfast on Christmas Eve morning and didn't tell anyone how sick he was.  Now DD's family is dropping like flies.  Our youngest DD flies back to CA tomorrow and we don't want to send her back to her new job sick.  We can't reschedule until next Monday.

Crap.  Now I can't take my tree down either.

    Oh no!  STomach bugs are the worst!  I would be ticked if someone came to a GTG while ill and spread their germs everywhere.

    BTW, was "crap" an intented pun?  =-D

    What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated.

    That sucks for you!  I sure hope things improve soon, for everyone.

    I threw another asthma attack on Monday morning and was in the hospital again until Thursday night.  Fortunately, one of my brothers &  SIL live in a suburb of NYC and came to my rescue!  Got me  sprung from the hospital and out to their place for Christmas which included dinner at another brother's house.

    Unfortunately, this was my first Christmas ever without M.  My doctor said no kids or crowds for another week so my trip there was cancelled.  We'll do 12th Night or perhaps a few days later this week if the kids are healthy.  I think we called each other a dozen times yesterday as we're so unused to being apart on Christmas.  I  hope my SIL isn't sick of me, he;s been priceless this month!

    Oh OOT, I am so sorry to hear that.  I remember the first time we didn't have our girls for Christmas.  All 4 of them went their grown up separate ways on the same Christmas and that was really tough.

    As a fellow asthma suffer I'm sending you hugs.  I have been very fortunate to never have been hospitalized but attacks are awful.  Hope you are feeling better.
