Etheaopean Glunkititis, lol
Well, it seems the entire clan here is under the weather. It started with my oldest daughter developing a fever last week that we could not track down the source even with a trip to the pediatrician. Today it was off again, with myself, my middle daughter, and youngest son all getting diagnosed with strep :cry: I feel so miserable I can hardly sit here to type, much less sew. Anyway, to the topic title, this morning my dd asked me what I thought was wrong with all of us, and this little line jumped to my lips like it was yesterday "Well, we have Etheaopian Glunkititis of course." She looked at me all puzzled and I went on to explane that it was when you just felt really bad and didn't know why. My father always told me that when I was little to explane everything from the common cold to the chronic migrains I have had since I was an infant. He always made it a lighthearted thing - it was cured by pizza and ice cream with chocolate sauce 8) Sarah informed me that I am "weird".
So just how weird are my father and I - how many of you out there have silly little names for unnamed ailments that I know we all have from time to time. I'm just curious and think it might be fun to share - that or my fever is just talking to me :wink:Tags: None

Around here we use the Spanish term "pico caido" which translates roughly to fallen peak, referring to the top red thing on a rooster's head...... don't worry; it doesn't make good sense to me, either. Anyhow we use it to refer to when someone is just feeling all out of sorts, whether child or adult, and can be physically or sometimes emotionally. It's not a dangerous malady and can usually be remedied by extra loving up (hugs, kisses, being tucked under a special quilt) and special treats.

Love that name gunk itis so much more elegant and esoteric than the crud. As we travel north we seem to get away from it until next fall. Read all the info about the flu shot having missed the major viruses or whatever causes the stuff we get makes me glad I am allergic to eggs and cannot have the flu shot or pneumonia or shingles shot because they are all grown on eggs. at least I have no false expectations about being immune to anything.
Hope all the sufferers of these awful diseases feel better soon. Spring is on the way and the sun is a great cure for most of that stuff.
Ann --sometimes glad what I put up with isn't of the contagious nature and as difficult as it is I know what I am dealing with.

Well, the Glunks continue for us here. My dh went to the doctor this morning and was diagnosed with an eye infection - the doctor did not say pink eye but that is what it looks like. He just said it was contagious - of course by this afternoon my left eye is blood red and runny :cry: So now the only healthy one is my oldest dd, who was horribly sick last week (she did this to us :twisted: lol :lol: :lol: )
Then on top of all that we recieved word that my dh's great uncle has passed away today - he was 91. It has been expected as he has been ill for several months now, so it was no suprise, but now we have to figure out what to do about the funeral. With all of us sick... but he and Aunt Mary are so special... I am so torn :cry: I know at least RJ will go if not all of us, and the girls are going to make cards for Aunt Mary.
On top of all this I CAN"T SEW!!! I tried hand quilting some today but the stitches just swim in front of my eyes :? I guess a fever will do that to ya. Thanks for letting me vent all...
