Sick day lovin’

I have officially learned to make the best out of not so great situations ;). This weekend hubby and I were babe-free and decided to go out and celebrate old school style (aka, go to the bars and do some drinking). Instead of worrying about going to a fancy restaurant for a valentine’s dinner, we dined at one of my favorite pubs and ate bar food. I drank a couple draft beers and then we moved on to our hold stomping grounds, the bar we met at and spent many a night drinking at. It was completely dead at 7:00 pm when we got there, but hubs and I had fun playing darts and air hockey until I started feeling reallllly dizzy. We both were battling head colds which got the best of me after a not so healthy meal and drinks and more activity than I have managed in awhile. The rest of the plans flew out the window as I begged my hubby to take me home to bed. On the ride home (3o minutes approximately) I had to keep my head in between my knees or else I was going to throw up or pass out. I felt utterly miserable and I knew my babe did too because he was sneezing, eyes watering, nose dripping and we both wanted nothing more than to get home to our cave. Needless to say I was sound asleep by 10pm and spent all of today feeling pretty crappy. Now it’s way way past my bed time and I still feel horrible. I can’t sleep because I am all stuffed up and the cold has moved into my chest. I also am having periods of dizziness and nausea to top it all off. I KNOW I need to be sleeping right now because I’m pretty sure hubby is going back to work tomorrow (in spite of this horrible cold he has) and I am going to be on my own with the little guys.
Even though my Valentine’s day turned out a little sickly (haha) I was happy to be with my husband. After almost 6 years together, it feels nice to cuddle up on the couch with tea and tissues and be sickfaces together. It’s not true love without spending an anniversary/valentines day spreading some sick germ cuddles and kisses!!
