Lauren & Sam

Catching Up

We’ve had a number of small traumas recently that have put me off posting, so it’s time to catch up. Sam was ill with a stomach flu from school a couple of weeks ago, just before we were due to go to Wisconsin Dells for a short vacation. He recovered enough for us to go, but then Lauren threw up while we there, and Claire was feeling unwell, so we left half way through the vacation before we all fell sick. And a few hours after we got back I duly did, and was knocked out for 2 days (unlike Sam, who threw up a few times but otherwise was hardly troubled.

This was followed quickly by a cold for Sam that subdued him somewhat, and has left me feeling like I’ve been hit by a truck. My big fear now is that he’s going to come home with a bit of a rash and I’m going to die a week later from Bubonic Plague.

Happily we’re both recovering OK, and neither Lauren and Claire have been seriously affected. So with a bit of luck I’ll be able to keep you all up to date once more.
