This weekend, the stomach flu busted through our family. Fortunately not everyone got it, but it changed our weekend plans. Now that we are on the mend, I thought I'd share the upside of the flu in honor of It's a Crafty Life's Ten on Tuesday.
- A phone call announcing the arrival of the flu didn't come until the end of date night.
- The kiddo that drives didn't get sick and was able to take the other healthy kiddo to church.
- No last minute pre-Father's Day clean up necessary. It's amazing how nobody is interested in eating at your house when the flu visits.
- I think the best gift my hubby got was not having the flu.
- I didn't get it until early Monday morning, so I was able to cook a nice Father's day dinner for those who could eat it.
- I lost 2 pounds! Although for all the trouble, I think it should be more.
- There's nothing like being sick to make you appreciate being healthy.
- There's also nothing like Mom being down and out to make kids appreciate having her healthy.
- My kids were very compassionate and helpful.
- I'm ready to pack away the red Gatorade and crackers until next time I sick!

I'm intrigued as to how the red gator aid helps? Other than making having stomach illness more messy ??

Red Gatorade is the only thing I can stand to drink when I'm sick. And when I'm sick is the only time I can stand the taste of red Gatorade. Go figure.
