Nooo! I caught my dear son's cold. I tried hard to avoid his swirling germ cloud, but what can you expect living with an outgoing and demonstrative 10-yr-old, hacking all over the place and leaving a trail of used tissues?
I really rarely get sick. I do get the big stuff: two sinus operations, glaucoma, broken foot a few years ago, food poisoning last spring, migraine here and there. To compensate for those, I've never had the flu, don't get colds, no stomach viruses. So I consider myself quite healthy. Henry's the same. Get this: he's NEVER had an ear infection or thrown up from illness. That may be a record for the Bend-La Pine School District. But we now have this annoying little cold.
On the plus side: I'm curled up on the couch, watching football, knitting and drinking tea with honey, lemon and bourbon with cats in my lap and Henry waiting on me. It could be worse.
No photo today, unless you want to see a mountain of tissues. Probably not.
