Haiku Friday - Sick Day
****Edited below ******
Curses on you, Croup!
I sleep between two fevers
Barking baby seals
For more of Haiku Friday go to A Mommy Story or Playgroups Are No Place for Children.
******I just wanted to add, for those of you waiting for an update on this fiasco, that the blog has finally been removed from the website (after several weeks, several phone calls, and a deadline of today, issued by my lawyer husband). And someone emailed me to ask if that event might have a relation to the publication I mentioned yesterday. No, the two events are not related at all, so please don’t think that Sekund had anything to do with that.

I can tell you how to make them stop coughing…but I can’t do it in a Haiku..
Take some Vicks Vapor Rub (or Mentholatum) and rub it on the bottom of their feet before they go to sleep. There is something between the vapors and the reflexology that helps the coughing stop.
I hope they get well soon!

Darn. Thought you were all fine. The Vicks on feet works. Must wear socks though.

Oh, how awful. Right in time for the weekend, too. I hope your seals are right as rain very soon.

I, too, LOVE your blog’s title!
But I’m sorry to hear your kids are sick.

Croup is so scary. Hope your little ones get well quickly.

I am wishing the croup goes away quickly and you all get lots of sleep soon! Glad to hear about the other thing being resolved as well.

Get well quickly. I’ll hop over, see what the mag problem was - must be nice to know a lawyer! Grin.
