How Predictable

Does this happen to anyone else??

Whenever The Professor goes out of town, I end up with sick kids.

I should have seen this coming, because there has been some kind of nasty virus/flu raging through our elementary school this week. {One class had only 13 kids there on Friday.} And when it comes to Cuddles, if there is something to get, he gets it. Word was that it was the swine flu going around, but I talked with another mom this morning and she said she took all her kids in and they all tested negative for swine flu. I suppose that's a good thing....

Up to now it's been a little tough for me to take the swine flu seriously-probably because of its name, but it seems as if the whole swine flu thing is getting a little out of hand round these parts. We were thinking about getting vaccinated, but before we even knew they had arrived, they were out. Lasted 8 hours. And there was another round of shots today in SLC with people camping out overnight. Its a little ridiculous.


So we missed the Homecoming Parade this morning. Durnit.

Sorry your kids are sick-but glad to hear it's probably not the swine flu.

The other day my son informed me that people are getting the swine flu because they, "keep licking pigs." So I guess as long as you avoid that, you're ok.

OK, sorry to post so late on this, but I'm a nerd and read through new blogs that I like. So this is SO me. Ben went out of town for a week. First thing that happens the next morning? Emma gets sick. And if it isn't when he's gone, it's got to be a weekend or holiday. Every time. Glad everyones OK at your house now!!
