Everyone at The Old Gray House is sick today, perhaps me most of all. It began yesterday morning with M threw up twice and couldn’t go to school—a horrible disappointment for her, as Friday was Geography Day and she’d counted on going. Then during the course of the day L came down with what looks to be the same bug, minus the stomach upset. I waited until this morning to get it, and did a fine job, too: my temperature’s at 102.5° F. as of five minutes ago, and I ache all over—an ache that Tylenol and Motrin are totally failing to reduce.
M and L both appear to be on the down side of this, with declining fevers. I, on the other hand, doubt I’ll be any use to anyone before about Tuesday.
