Been sick as a damn dog for the past two days. Yesterday morning, after getting up to drive Her Nurseliness home from her overnight shift at the hospital and get breakfast for the little boy, I went back to bed until the afternoon. Started feeling a little better then, so cleaned up the kitchen and made dinner.
Symptoms are flu-like and made me wonder if spending the weekend in the hotel pool might've been the source of the bug. But the little boy, who was with me for all of that and usually drinks about half the pool while coughing and sputtering, seems fine.
And as I contemplated all the things left undone, these past two days, I reflected on the self-reliant toughness of my Dutch/English forebears who let nothing keep them down because they simply couldn't do that and still survive...
