Our house is sick. Okay, right now it is just me, but when Mama gets sick the whole house falls apart. Can’t let the blog fall apart too! Figured this is the perfect time to complete this fun little meme I came across. I have to note that I believe in giving credit where credit is due, the problem? My fever addled brain can not recall where it came from! I know it was from a regular reader and commenter so when you see this meme claim it baby and I will update and link back to you!
