I don&#8217;t venture outside. Not to say I don&#8217;t go to my mail box, I do. But I don&#8217;t leave the property on which my house sits. I don&#8217;t go to the store. I don&#8217;t drive any where. And. Well. I don&#8217;t tend to dress for life. Let me explain.<\/p>\n<p>A flu like bug has been passing around the house and poor Nate has been sick for 5 days. In that 5 days I have only left the house to Take Cam to school on Wednesday and to take Nate to the hospital when he got really bad (also Wednesday). Other then that I haven&#8217;t gone ANY where. With each passing day I have dressed a little frumpier then the one before. And with each passing day I have felt even less like interacting with the people outside of my house. I know I will eventually have to go out again but right now I just don&#8217;t want to. Oh well it will all be there tomorrow when the sun comes up. Maybe I will venture out then, but the weather man says it&#8217;s going to rain soooo&#8230;..maybe not!<\/p>\n<p>Addendum:<\/p>\n<p>After writing this post I went and read a <a href=\"http:\/\/rebekahmitchell.ca\/2011\/11\/19\/a-conversation-with-a-friend-and-colleague\/\">friend&#8217;s post<\/a>. It was writen about almost the samething from the opposite view. It made me laugh. And I realized that when I am ready to continue along &#8220;the road of a life&#8221; that others will be there to walk it with me. And that made me smile. So to <a href=\"http:\/\/rebekahmitchell.ca\/\">Rebekah<\/a> I say thank you. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is a weird thing that happens when I am sick for a long period (or in this case my son is).
