We've spent these past three Fridays (and a few other days too in this same time frame) in a doctor's office or urgent care setting -- not for anything especially urgent, though. The six of us have all fallen prey to The Sniffles over the past ten days or so, with resulting ear infections for some. Others of us have had brushes with other infections that required immediate attention so as to not develop into something more serious. Though we are collectively improving, some of us are still rather like faucets (including Mama and the raven-haired lass).
So much sniffling and time spent in doctors' offices has worn Mama down, but considering the relatively minor ailments afflicting us, I am filled with humility and gratitude for our overall good health. We're redoubling our hand-washing efforts and stocking up our apothecary shop with probiotics, vitamins, and natural remedies like cranberry juice in an effort to restore us to vitality and its accompanying vim and vigor (or something like that).
But for now, here's hoping to catch up on some sleep...
