Oh, no.

Oh, no, I think I have the flu.
See you after I get plenty of rest, fluids and sympathy from a husband who is OUT OF TOWN.
Do you think a four year old can make soup?

oh no! I hope you feel better before next Fri. If you don't, I'll understand, but I really hope you do!
Oh honey! I wish I was there to make soup for you. Can you FedEx soup?
No, but they can make microwave bacon.
I think any above average four year old should definitely be able to make soup.
If you need anything, I will bring it to you! Just let me know. Anything, seriously.
NO NO NO NO!!!!! The flu is horrible, especially when you have incredibly small, yet enormously demanding, little people. They have a psychic sense and feel the need to amp up the whining and tantrum-throwing when they know you are weak and cotton-headed.
I will drive all the way over there just to make you soup or just to help you climb down off the ledge. Okay? Yes. Good.
Oh, no is right. I'm sorry. Get better fast!
I just had a sick kid, so I am hoping to avoid it myself!
I hope you feel better ASAP.
xoxo
I don't know about soup, but they can definitely make poop.
I'll be here all week. Tip your waitstaff.
I'm so sorry!! Hope you feel better soon! :)
Oh. Honey. Call the posse. Get some chicken soup over there. Stat. Wish I could ply you with Jell-O. Much, much, much love.
Oh no, where can I hide? Wife had it last 2 days after kid A had it last weekend.
Hope you feel better soon. It's nasty.
sorry hon. :( i got a bug too, so i'm looking for soup as well...
Borrow Britt's kids. I'm sure they can cook for you. (;
I hope you feel better!
I think that Adam should come over and cook, clean and take care of the kids.
Yup.
@Sheila (Charm School Reject), Look what you did, jerkface....didn't even tell the poor lady to feel better. Geesh. What an idiot.
::cough::
I hope you feel better Faiqa...even if that other Sheila CSR doesn't.
@Sheila (Charm School Reject), You made me laugh. And then cough. A lot. (And Adam called me five minutes after this post went live and asked me if I needed anything... he really is such a great friend. But you know that.)
@nancy, I *will* recover by then. InshAllah.
@Finn, Umm. I don't think so. But, you could Fedex yourself. ;-)
@SciFi Dad, Sigh. Obviously, you are employed by the nefarious Getting Muslims to Eat Bacon Lobbyists of America.
@Avitable, "Making soup" does not mean heating the contents of a can. And I seriously doubt that you can make soup from scratch.
It follows, then, that your abilities lie below that of the above average four year old.
Ha. See what I did there? Kneel before Faiqa.
@Hilly, Thanks, hon.
@Courtney, I think you're on to something with the whining/sickness ratio. And, thanks for the soup offer, but you stay far away until I get better... we don't want to expose YOU to amped up whining!
@Jason, Thanks, I'm trying.
@Sybil Law, <3 Thanks
@B.E. Earl, Take my wife... please...
@Becca, Thanks... I'm feeling a little better today.
@Coal Miner's Granddaughter, Mmmm, JellO. I wish you were here to watch my kids. Seriously. I know that's a crappy thing to say, but I hope you realize I meant it as a compliment of the highest order.
@Hockeymandad, No vomiting. Thank GOD.
@Peau, I don't know why, but I'm remembering that scene, "Please, suh, can I have some mo'"
@Elizabeth Kaylene, Hehehe... I bet they can.
@Faiqa, I have a force field against whining, amped or otherwise. You'll get yours once Y is 2 and your life becomes "stop fighting" on a loop.
Seriously thought, if you need something say the word :)
I wish 4 year olds could make soup, but when I got mine to make grilled cheese, she burned herself. Right.before.my.eyes!
I hope you feel better.
