When Germs Attack (Insert Horror Music Here)

Well, I'm 100% certain now that school is back in session (as if there was any doubt). Lena, who seems to be feeling better today has managed to pawn her grubby little germs off throughout the rest of the house. James just tucked himself into bed looking a very ghostly shade of white with sweat pouring down his head. I'm seriously considering sleeping on the couch tonight in fear of climbing into a swimming pool under the covers. Which, needless to say, I'd really rather not.

Last night, even I was in bed by 9:30. That's unheard of in our house, because I'm typically a night owl. Even when I know I'm going to regret it in the morning, I still tend to stay up late. Plus, my sister, who was over this weekend, has also come down with the lovely wet hacking cough that both girls were kind enough to spread around the house on various surfaces. Despite my Clorox wipe rampage, it appears it's a battle that I have lost. Oh joy!

It occurred to me this morning, that the same thing was going around our house last year at this time. The only reason I know this is because she was coughing her first day of choir... Coincidentally today was the first day of choir and again the same thing. I'm positive things like this are the culprit...
