There's this song that Mr. Fantastic used to sing in Kindergarten.  It goes:

'I don't feel so good.  I don't feel so good.  My nose is all runny. My tummy hurts, too.  My mommy says that I have something called flu.  I hope Dr. Smartstuff will know what to do 'cause I don't feel so good.'

Yep.  The flu is running rampant through our little town (along with many other illnesses) and I'm thinking I'm coming down with something. My throat is starting to hurt and my head hurts.  bad.  Popeye felt inspired to give the kids all blessings this morning and I'm thinking that sounds pretty good for me, too. 

I'm glad I finished my book yesterday - I don't think I'd be able to focus with my head hurting this way.
And thanks again to Julie who was giving away that book!  I really enjoyed it!

Anyway.  I hope I can keep this at bay because I can't afford (literally, monetarily) to miss anymore work this month. 

I know.  Jump on in, Her Royal Highness, everyone's in the same boat.
