A. started getting sick yesterday. He woke up at 3:30 this morning with fever and chills. As I was getting him some aspirin, it occurred to me that 3:30 a.m. meant it was officially December 15. So I wished him happy birthday. He's 29 today. The flu is his birthday present, apparently.
So, instead of a happy birthday, I will now wish a healthy birthday to my incomparable husband: builder of gates, ponds, and barns; fearless chef; and the innovative mind that brought us the woodchuck snow plow.
The world is a more interesting place because he's in it.

Happy Birthday, A! I vote that you move your birthday to JANUARY 15th this year, because there is no way you can properly celebrate while feeling like ass casserole. Feel better soon!
Happy Birthday to A. Maybe if you make him enough hot toddies he'll feel better?
Happy Birthday A. Feel better quick, so Kristin doesn't have to brave the great outdoor fierceness to do all of your outside stuff.
Regular flu and did you guys get shots for both?
Guess getting the flu is better than NO present for your birthday....what am I sayin' , nah.

what p-diddy says when he leaves the room
Happy Birthday A. I vaguely remember being 29, but that was about 20 years ago. I remember it being a good year.
Just regular flu, I think. I've been shot up for both (heh), but neither A. nor the MiL have had any vaccinations.
Alyssa: Believe it or not, he's too sick for toddies. That's when you know he's not malingering.
That's just the Birthday Fairy's way of saying "Stay in bed and relax on your birthday, big fella!"
Or whatever Birthday Fairies might say.
You, Kris - go Irish up his coffee. That'll get him on the road to recovery. ;)
It sounds like a belated birthday celebration is in order.
Happy Healthy Birthday.
Happy Birthday A. - Milk it for another celebration when you feel better! (And hope that is soon!)
Happy birthday to your sweet hubby. I hope y'all get to celebrate at a later date.
Happy Birthday A! I had no idea you are so young . . . I'm old enough to be your mother. No wonder I relate to Kristin's MiL so well.
Happy (belated) Birthday, A! Hope you feel better soon! (And I'm glad to see someone asked the question about the flu shots that I was gonna ask if they hadn't.)
