Slowly crawling back from the dead!

I am recovering from a NASTY virus. It knocked me and my family on our butt!!! My poor husband has the best immune system ever. I could have Ebola, blood shooting from my eyes, and he could cuddle up next to me and never catch it!

Lucky for him, that means he gets to be the sick caretaker. He finally told me yesterday that He could not do my job. While Mike was folding laundry, Ethan smacked his sister with a marble trophy on the head. I stumble out of bed due to the shreiking in the living room, calm Liv down, and Mike says, "I can't do the laundry AND watch Ethan". HMMMMM... The urge to laugh was strong (except for the excruitiating pain in my throat), the urge to take the marble trophy and whop him on the head was strong, the urge to crawl back into bed and let the strongest survive won over!

I actually feel sorry for him, sort of. He is going stir crazy having to stay and do housework and childcare all day. He is VERY eager to run out to the drug store or walmart.

We missed Olivia's talent show last night, I didn't tell Liv so I am hoping she will forget about it.

I have watched more TV this week than I have in years. I usually choose to watch History channel, Discovery, National Geographic...etc.. Well it is Earth week and I have been completely indoctrinated. I will just recap for you uninformed what is coming in the future. Which in some ways could be liberating. I mean why worry about schooling our kids, don't stress all your kids need to know is survival skills and they will be fine!

* In 2016 gas reserves will run out, mass panic, (teach your kids how to ride a bike)
* A 2-3 degree warming is coming with horrible flooding (Move to Canada it will be the new Florida) a possible 6 degree increase may happen where we all DIE, even if you live in Antartica
* Yellowstone is due for a mega volcanic erruption anytime! (Volcanic winter kills off most vegetation and could cause a nuclear winter, which might counteract the global warming??)
* The west coast of the US is on the Cascadian fault that is due for a mega super earthquake which should be a 9+ on the Richter scale and cause massive tsunamis. (Personally I would not be overly devastated if California fell into the ocean...something like Sodom & Gomorah...)
*Global warming....blah...blah...blah... Recycle....don't wash your hair....get worms and put all your trash in a worm bucket.....use cloth diapers....ok, well the worm idea sounds cool for the garden

***Ok if you can't tell I am a little over the green eco drama! I love the earth too, but must I hear about every possible eco disaster and how it can all be linked to man, (ie fat lazy americans and their SUVs) I can't take any more, and to think they teach this garbage as accepted fact to our kids! The main thing I got from their warming and cooling charts were that this is a normal cycle for the earth!


I am off to nap, Ethan rode with Mike today so I have a few free hours
