It is flu season and it seems to be hitting the entire country hard. We are no exception here in my house. My middle child had to have her tonsils out so I had two weeks of her at home and dealing with that, I was so happy when she could finally go back to school on to have on her third day back to school her to come home with a fever of 101.4. I just had to say here we go. I have three young children for all that did not know and they are all really close in age. They want to share everything including the flu. I braced my self went and got Lysol and was preparing for a long hard few weeks. Day 2 was okay my daughter stayed in the bed away from everyone and I was able to go about my routines. Day 3 was horrible I felt really weak and knew I was getting the flu so here we go I am out and my hubby was going to have to take care of everything to keep the rest of the family well. When I took my sick one to the doctor they gave us all the flu meds so that we could try to keep from getting it so now I had to up my to twice a day and hope for the best. I was down Friday and Saturday, but was able to pull it together on Sunday and get things started back. So here is my main key when you are getting back to your routines after being sick. Take it slow and easy and drink lots of the water. Now it is Tuesday of the following week and the school calls and says that my oldest daughter is sick and I need to come get her. When i took her to the dr she had the flu as well and she has already taken the meds so she can not take them so we just have to try to get through it the best we could. That was not good enough for me I wanted to find a way to keep this from going to the rest of the family so when my mother in law called and said she read something about putting a onion in the window of everyone's bed room I had to find out what this was about. I looked this up and would site it but can not remember where I found it at and for the life of me can not find it again today. All you have to do is to cut the onion in half and put it in each window. The onion will trap in the germs and virus and your family will not get sick. I thought it was worth a try. well my house was a little sticky for a few hours but when I work up the next morning and checked the onion in the window it was already turning purple and black like they said it would. Now I just hope that it will keep us all well.
Well I was not going to just stop there I have to get this monster out of my house so I got the Lysol that you mix with water and a bucket and rag and went after everything in the house that people where touching dresses, door knobs, light switches, the counters, bath tub and so on. This has been really easy on my because I have been keeping with my routines and the house was not a crazy mess like it would have been before. Because of my routines and my family knowing that the routines can not stop just because mommy is sick the house was not a pig pen and I did not have to spend the day crisis cleaning upstairs and down I just picked up my routines and went on about my days. I am so in love with the fly system and that they were able to keep my house running while I was not. Oh please anyone who tries the onion and wants to tell me how it works feel free to put it in the comments section here I think this is a great way to keep you family well with out all the drugs that have lots of side effects.
HAPPY FLYING
