This Is Me, Soliciting Advice

Dear Internet,

So!

Jim has missed embarrassing amounts of work and I am fending for myself today, despite still feeling like I may expire soon. I'm a little worried about how to get through the day, so I thought I'd ask all of you what you do during these times. Here's the dealio:

-I just started eating small amounts yesterday, but am still quite nauseous.
-I am still very weak; I blacked out yesterday after carrying Liam upstairs (we were in the bedroom and I was able to put him down safely).
-Liam is quite a hands-on, needy little one. He will watch a Baby Einstein video, but only if I'm sitting next to him, talking to him about it. He doesn't want to be on the floor; he wants to be in my arms. And when he's in my arms, he wants to be bounced, or tickled, or to engage in some other type of one-on-one interaction.
-I am tired. Liam's been awake most of the last two nights. We figure he's not feeling well either.
-There is no family nearby who can help out.

So, oh wise internet, I beseech thee - how do you deal with this type of situation? How do you get through?

I'm thinking it's taking me extra time to recover because of various simultaneous afflictions (ie: the infections, the bronchitis, the breastfeeding...). But I'm about ready to be done with feeling like crap, ya dig?

Incidentally, I hope you all had a lovely Valentine's day full of chocolate and sex and kisses and shiny red hearts and cake and not feeling like crap!

Love,

Tree

ps: In light of the fact that I am quite tedious when ill, and also due to the fact that my blog has taken on a rather monotonous tone lately, I offer you the following picture in hopes that you will remember that we over here at Crazy-ass family can also be adorable:

Observe the blue eyes and the questioning look. Regard the care which is taken during the attempted consumption of the key toy. Couldn't you just eat him up?

Well you can't! He's mine.

Ahem.

I mean, isn't he cute, though?
