The flu ha**** our town.  At least one of my DD's cheerleaders has the Swine Flu.  Several of my grandkids are sick with Influence A but not tested for Swine.  Yesterday there were only 5 kids in our Grandsons first grade class and they said there were 100's out in the upper grades.

Maintenance:   6+ years out!!!

Breakfast:        1 Banana

Snack:              Greek Yogurt with Cherries

Lunch:              Scrambled Egg, Egg Beater Whites, Diced ham

Snack:              Laughing Cow Lite Swiss Cheese Wedge and 6 Saltines

Snack:              Nature Valley Almond Crunch Bar...YUMMY Nuts and Gluten Free

Dinner:             Boiled Chicken Casserole

Oh dear.  Stay home and away from the sick kids.  It's too hard on us old folks.

I was planning on driving today but just went out to put out hay and it is spitting rain, 40 and windy.  Too much for me.  DH and I are going to do some shopping.

decaf protein coffee  33g
2eggs, 3 turkey bacon
lemon tea protein  13g
burger patty in low carb pita
lemon tea protein  13g
pork chop, sweet potato
protein shake  33g

I told my DD I didn't think we should be around the kids and she got so mad.  I told her she was being a snot...LOL which didn't help matters....LOL. It hasn't been a year since DH had his heart attack and he has been to the hospital a couple times since then and I really don't want him getting sick. We haven't seen them since Sunday and I do miss them but I check on them every day.

Sounds Good!

The only thing that kept Son#2 from getting the flu at school up there was nice big doses of vitamin D3.  :)

I've heard it hasn't hit Pittsburgh yet.  Our DD lives in Cranberry Twp. between us and Pittsburgh and they haven't had a lot of absences in the school she works at.  Yesterday there were 22 kids missing from 5th grade at one of our schools.

Sounds Good!

We had a wonderful time on our trip this past weekend.  Everyone put most all of their electronic devices up - all the kids had to put their ipads up they were pitiful at first but it didn't take them long to get the hang of actually playing and having fun with each other!

I never get the shot.  I can only remember having the flu 3 times during my adult life and each one was when I was pregnant.  The flu going around here is a sore throat, ear aches, and a high fever.  Our 18 month old had a terrible nose bleed during the night. My DD said there was blood every where and he was shocking on it.

Sounds like a great Protein day!
