Sick

I've been sick since Tuesday.  My throat started to get achy then.  I ignored it, thinking it was allergies.  Audrey had started being sick Sunday night and Brent stayed home from work on Thursday.  Today and yesterday, it's just my sinuses.

The more I think about it, the more I think I know where Audrey picked this up from and then felt compelled to share with her parents: a lollypop from 1/2 Price Books.  We had a family outing and we were all enjoying looking at the wonderful books they had to offer.  Since it was Audrey and 4 adults, I admit my eyes weren't always on her, but looking for a particular book.  Mistake.  I happen to turn around and she had a 1/2 eaten lolly in her hand.  Sick sick sick!  I didn't know if she stuck it in her mouth, but I took it from her and wiped her down with a butt wipe, but she does suck her thumb so if the germy lolly slime got on her thumb...*shudder*....

My sister said it reminded her of the line in Elf "the gum on the sidewalk is NOT free candy" or something like that.

Anyway, there are a couple of other places it could've come from, but I am pretty convinced someone's pumpkin child who left their nasty lollypop at 1/2 Price is the culprit.  Gross.  Parents, if your child brings food in to a place, make sure they ate it all or threw it away.  I had to do this the other day.  Finally hunted down that cookie.
