Not so good life...

So, after I posted that last post titled, "Livin' the good life"  I came down with a wicked ear infection.  I had been suffering from a small cold since I got home from the hospital with Griffin.  I guess the cold decided to settle in my left ear.  I woke up Wednesday morning with the worst pain in my ear.  I couldn't even function.  I had never experienced anything like this.  Anyway, Andy took the day off to care of the kids, my mom took a shift, Sandra came and took the boys to the basketball game, more food was delivered from the ward, and I was able to just lie in bed with my head sandwiched between a heat pad and my pillow.  Not fun!  Not the "good life!" I must also mention that my Dad did my dishes that night as well!  That is the second time I have found him in my kitchen washing each and every dish used at dinner.   He would be every upset if I didn't mention him on this blog.  Doing dishes goes against his image, so I greatly appreciate him helping!  Love you Dad!  A BIG thanks to Colette who also helped with my boys the next day so I could get some rest.  Family is the best---
So, I am on the mend...I  just feel like my head is in a cloud (which is nothing new!)

That really stinks. It is hard enough just being a new mom again. Hang in there. I hope it goes away quickly!!
