September was full of sickness and October seems to be full of knee pain

I apologize for my absence.  This blog seems to really be picking up.  People are actually commenting!

Anyway, September, I was sick.  I haven't been that sick in years.  But that is off topic since this isn't a blog about what's wrong with me.  What's Wrong With Wes has a way better ring to it anyway.

I'm not doing a recap of September's sickness because the whole month would be blocked out.  When I said I was finally getting better, Wes was only "a little bit better", but when I mentioned him going back to the Dr, he said he was feeling 100% better than the day before so he thought he'd be out of the woods soon.

After the severe cold was lifted from our household, Wes started complaining about knee pain.  He even broke out the heating pad.  Knee pain has been my life for the last 3 days.

Contact issues

Wes left work early today because he's having "contact issues" and it caused him to have a "screaming headache".

He said he was 90% better with his upper respiratory infection problems he' s been dealing with for the last 3 weeks.

So now the entertaining illnesses like "contact issues" can commence!

Is this a competition?

So Wes is STILL sick....yes we are heading to the end of week 3 of this same illness. Our kids are getting over it too. The only one who has dodged it all has been me....until now.

I woke up this morning with a sore throat which I originally chalked up to the dryness of the air but it hasn't gone away.

Wes keeps asking me what's wrong and I keep saying "I don't feel good." And he keeps saying "I don't feel good either" and then proceeds to tell me how awful he feels. 

I finally asked "Is this a competition for who's the sickest?" He said "No, I was just letting you know I know what it feels like."

Uh, thanks.

Another early day for Wes

Wes left work early again.  Our kids' swim lessons start tonight.  Fortunately (?), one of the kids is sick too so at least it evens out that one of the kids won't have to miss out on swim lessons because of Wes.

My house is turning into a plague nest.

Our kids are sick

Both of our kids woke up sick this morning.  I think just a cold so nothing super gross.  The babysitter was still willing to watch them.  So I called Wes on my way to work to tell him.  His response?  "Well, I'm really sick."  Thanks, Wes.  Thanks.

Home sick from work

Wes went home sick from work.  I guess he now has a sinus headache and couldn't think straight.

I have a strong suspicion that I'll get home and he'll have a PS4 controller in his hand since the new Destiny expansion came out.

Anyone want to take bets on whether or not Wes calls in sick or comes home early tomorrow on the day that every single Destiny player is finding an excuse not to go to work?

Insomnia

Now, Wes has insomnia and "it must be a side effect from his medicine." It, of course, has nothing to do with him sleeping 20 hours a day every day since Friday.
