- You can sit around and cough at any place in your house that you deem appropriate. Anywhere. For as long as it takes.
- You can lay on the couch with your feel-better accessories all day. All day.
- You only have to get out of bed to pee or grab another package of kleenex.
- You don't have to be woken in the morning by someone jumping on your tender lungs.
- You don't have to sterilize yourself and feed other people.
- You don't have to go to the park. Or outside at all for that matter.
- You don't have to hide in the garage during midnight coughing fits for fear of waking the kid.
- Your dog won't get sick of having to spend time with you in quarantine.
- If your throat hurts really bad you don't have to talk.
- You don't risk peeing a little from coughing, sneezing or blowing your nose.

This post made me smile -- I just got over a cold so it is time for my flu shot so I can avoid any more!

Good points. Being ill and having to look after a kid when you can hardly look after yourself is the WORST. Hope you feel better soon!
Visiting from the hop :-)

LOL! I love this post! I am your newest follower. Thanks for visiting, following, and tweeting my post too. I really appreciate it! I look forward to more visits and in the meantime, Happy Thanksgiving!
So true! I also enjoyed watching whatever I wanted on tv on sick days. Now I have to watch whatever the sick kid(s) (b/c if I'm sick, they are sick!) wants to watch!
I am so right there with you! I've been so sick lately, because of the toddler. And what a miserable experience it is.
Thanks for the laugh!
Thanks guys :) I of course forgot to put in the #1 best reason which is that before you have kids you can actually 'call in sick'.
Ha this is great!!! It's so hard taking care of others when we feel like crap!!!
I so much agree with you, I can relate with the points you made. Thanks for linking up to my Get Connected Tuesday Blog Hop and hope to see you around next time. Following you.
