My poor in-laws. They got here on Wednesday and came down with a stomach virus early Thursday morning. They felt better by Friday, so we did get to go out yesterday but then they had to leave this morning. It was not the visit that they, or we, had planned on. At least the weather was not too nice. Having a beautiful day that we couldn’t enjoy would have made it even more terrible. Now, 2 of the 4 boys have the virus. Lovely. I predict that they will all succumb. I hope that Jon is spared. I hope that I’m spared, too. We shall see. So, the time for the rolling up of rugs, the covering the couch with a sheet, the washing loads and loads of laundry, the paying children who hit their target, the lysoling everything periodically and the opening of questionable doorknobs with the tail of my shirt has begun. The germaphobe in me has gone manic. It was bound to happen. Update on Monday. Peace out, y’all.

Our dear Miss Liz is back in the hospital again. ICU. I took her over there yesterday afternoon. And, I actually think that she should have gone last week…but she didn’t want to go. You can only do so much, you know. I just think that she is just really, really sick…but that is just my opinion, and, you know, I’m not a doctor or anything like that. When we were sitting there in the ER yesterday, I was actually thankful for a bunch of wrong number calls that I was getting on my phone. The person who had my number before me was apparently very popular and knew quite a few colorful characters. Miss Liz was getting a kick out of the conversations that I was having with the callers. She particularly enjoyed it when I told her that the man who was calling (after calling many times) told me that “you be trippin'”, about this being my number now and then saying at the end of the conversation, “I’m so sorry Baby, you have a good day.” First time in my life that I’ve been called “Baby” by a drunken stranger. At least Miss Liz got a kick out of it. Still think that I’m going to get a new number, though. Please pray for our friend, Miss Liz, if you are so inclined. Thanks.
