I am glad we are both better!! Obviously good enough to be back online here lol! Yay to having wonderful supporting husbands!!

Then next day I spent at my sister's in bed and she took the baby until he needed to eat so I could rest. That night I was feeling marginally better and I went back to my in-laws. The next day all I could do was sit in a rocking chair in their living room and nurse my baby while I also nursed Gatorade, lol. Misery!!! Glad you are on the mend.

Oh no... What a holiday u had I am glad we all lived thru it!!! Gatorade aren't so good Anymore to me since I only drink it when I am sick lol.

I am generally not a Gatorade fan because it doesn't taste sweet enough to me, lol. But that day I diluted it with half water and even that felt strong! Yeah, it's not my go-to for illness, I am more of a Sprite fan when my stomach acts up.

Lol speaking of diluting a drink, I do the same thing too! Now that I just recovered from my illness, hubby went and got me ginger taste- soda.... Blah... So sweet. I should try sprite with lemon next time. Lol
