Sound the alarms!
Remove any and all persons of the male persuasion from the immediate vicinity ASAP!
Note: THIS.IS.SERIOUS.
There is no mistaking this, my friends: The Man-Cold has officially made it's way into our home.
Pray for my dear husband as there is no telling whether or not he will make it through. And pray for me as I try and have the utmost compassion and understanding for him during this trying time.
*this has been an alert from the spouse of the most recent recipient of the Man-cold*

I'm praising all that's holy (and unholy) that the "Man-Cold" hasn't made its rounds here yet.
My sympathies for you, though.
A friend recently told me she'd rather have all four kids home sick than her husband: I had to chuckle (not from agreeing with her, oh heavens no). :)
I'm putting garlic over my bloggy-door to make sure the man cold stays away. Should be some kind of man-cold-repellent :)
Make sure to wear ear plugs...that way you can't hear the whining.
Oy. Erik and I just had this discussion the other day. When he's sick it's all I hear about...when he coughs he MUST groan after...etc. When I'm sick life goes on. I don't think I'm praying for HIM, but rather for you... to make it through. God bless and God's speed.
oh dear me-
take livie and go to a friend or family member's home and stay there until it passes. don't get me wrong, i love john and all, but there really is no other solution best of luck, my friend!
OH NO! I remember all too well what happens when the Man-Cold hits. The rest of the world stops. Ceases to turn on its axis. I pray you don't catch the cold, because there is just no way that you could ever possibly feel as bad as him. :)
I crack up everytime I look at the pic of the goggle-eyed puppy. And I'll be praying the rosary for your sanity during this most upsetting of times. I'm not Catholic, but I'll still pray the rosary for you. BWAHAHAHA!
Thank you friends, for your wonderful words of encouragement. I'm pleased to say that he is now napping, though I am checking his breathing patterns regularly. Can't be too careful. Together, I have faith we can get through this. ;)
HAHAHAHHAA
BWAHAHAHA! That's the spirit, Abbie! We CAN do this; we WILL do this. We are women. :)
Ok, my husband NEVER gets sick. NEVER. and when he feels just tiny bit bad, he drinks a gallon of orange juice and then he's all better. Therefore, he has absolutely NO sympathy for me when I get sick.
"Just go drink some orange juice, baby."
"But, I have tuberculosis."
"Oh, you're fine. A little vitamin C should do the trick."
I don't know which is worse!
I will pray for your patience, though! :)
haha-Melissa-John NEVER gets sick either! Liv and I can have the serious plague and somehow it will totally bypass him...in all honesty, he's totally not anything like that little video link I have on here, I'm pretty lucky that way, but I just thought it was too funny, because he does totally have his sick-and-i'm-totally-dieing moments, even if they are just few and far between! :)
First, I have to say I LMAO at that Man Cold video clip. My hubby is awesome but when he's sick, I just want to ship him off somewhere.
Second, I stumbled across your blog a few weeks ago and I think you are absolutely hilarious!!I hope you don't mind if I keep reading along!!
Oh the dreaded Man Cold. They are worse than 3 kids being sick at once! When mine is sick, you would think he needs to be hospitalized. LOL. May God be with you...
HA - here's hoping your husband doesn't sucumb to the man-cold (or you don't kill him over the whinging!)
Yep, mine "experiences" his coughs and we get constant updates on hiswell-being...he's sure he has pneumonia. Pfft.
Hey, Abbie! You hangin' in there, girl? Please tell me that you and Livie have escaped the crud...
