I'm Baaaaaaaack!!!

We're back from vacation! We ended up having a fabulous time and of course spent way too much money... but hey it's vacation, right?

Anyway, the night before we left my poor hubby got sick and NO, I'm not talking about a cold or even the flu. He got really sick. In fact the night before leaving I ended up having to sleep on the couch because he was coughing nonstop. I know that probably sounds mean, but I thought it would be best if one of us got some decent sleep.

The second day on vacation he seemed to be getting worse, so he went over to an urgent care center. Well, if you can believe it, the doctor let him know that he not only had a double ear infection, but also bronchitis. I'm sure you can tell by the picture above he wasn't feeling the best (click the picture to enlarge it and you'll really be able to tell)!

On a positive note, though, we still had fun. We hung out in the hotel room more then we planned, order lots of room service and just relaxed. But really isn't that what vacations are suppose to be about? It's nice being forced to take things slow, especially when it's so easy to want to cram lots of activities into one day!

The vacation did go by fast, but I'm so glad to back!
I've really missed my blogging routine and all of you!

What a cute couple...welcome back. I hope hubby is all better...I had my hubby home all last week with some strain of the flu, and now I have a great cough. Isn't it horrible to be sick, especially in the summertime? I'm glad you had a good time...you were missed by all.

We got sick on a trip to Las Vegas once. That's when we discovered they sold Tylenol in blister packs of two for FIVE DOLLARS! It certainly wasn't our best vacation, but we'll never forget it :)

Welcome back & we missed you too!

I was sick on our honeymoon 31 years ago but I guess it was okay since we are still happily married! Sorry to hear about your hubby though. (He does look pretty miserable.)

My hubby and I have a saying 'it isn't really vacation if one of us hasn't been to urgent care'...:-) Makes for great after-stories... ;-)

It's great to have you back -- i'm impressed with how much you managed to post while away anyway! But i'm glad you took care of yourself and stayed well -- if hubby had gotten any worse, you needed to be in good shape to get him to appropriate care. One of you needed to be in good shape to drive! :)
