Sick Snow Day

I can't believe how much snow we are getting this year!  It started snowing this morning about 7:00 & snowed the entire day.  The weird thing is....it didn't snow at my work which is about 30 minutes away.  I decided to not go in because Patrick had left home before me & called & said that he had slid twice & the roads were pretty bad around our house.  I knew it wasn't going to stop anytime soon & it wasn't just me getting out there...it was Mallory too. 

However it has not been an enjoyable day.  Somehow I have gotten sick again.  I'm talking the worst cold I can remember having in a long, long time.  My head & nose stopped up to the point where it feels like they are going to explode but yet my nose still has a slight drip.  SO.ANNOYING.  Not to mention it is bright red & raw from blowing & wiping it so much.  UGH....I don't do well being sick.  I tried taking DayQuil, Tylenol Cold, Tylenol Sinus & Mucinex.  None of it budged this congestion :(  Finally, our neighbor who is a veterinarian bought me some nose spray & an antibiotic.  The nose spray has worked wonders thank goodness.  The antibiotic may or may not be for dogs.  At this point, I could care less, I need some relief, ha! 

Patrick & I both were sick the week of Christmas (but not this bad) & now with me being sick again, I don't know how Mallory can avoid catching it, but somehow so far she has.  (I'm knocking on wood right now).  She missed her first day of preschool because of the weather of course.  I'm sure all of the moms would appreciate me keeping my snotty nose away anyway.  We'll try again for Wednesday when hopefully my cold & the snow are GONE.
