infirmary

the hoenisch family spent the long weekend sick. it all started last week with calvin having fevers overnight. we were able to manage it with ibruprophen/tylenol but he wasn't sleeping great and it finally took its toll on us. wednesday, i woke up feeling woosy and tired. throughout the day i began feeling achy but i chaulked it up to the great/moderately hard trail run the night before. by 4 i knew it was something much worse. i was committed to subbing in golf league so when the chills hit i dosed up on tylenol, went out to my car and took a nap (w/long sleeves, w/windows up, in full sun) and i got through it. played ok (had 4 pars) but the wheels came off and i could feel the fever hitting me. got home and the chills ramped up again. i had a measured temp of 103.5 which apparently is pretty high for an adult but i got through it. no work on thursday...fever broke mid day and i spent the rest of the time sleeping. friday i felt great but the rest of the weekend i had a pretty bad sore throat and felt run down. thursday was also when calvin began coughing. it got worse on friday and he began pawing at his ears...a trip to after hours clinic friday night (we know how to party) found a small ear infection. robin matched that trip to the urgent care on sunday with ear pain/pressure of her own - she had a sinus infection. man, daycare is a bitch.

so, we spent our long weekend trying to recover and keep each other comfortable. not exactly beer pong parties and blowing shit up but we wouldn't want to do that anymore anyway even if we felt good.

we did have some house guests last night...pat and charlotte spent the night on thier way charlotte's appointment. we love being able to see them and would like to make it more of a regular occurrance.

a sure sign of feeling better is that i'm beginning to miss training again...it has been a week since my last workout. maybe tonight.

and with that, i need to plow through the work i was supposed to do over the weekend in the next 3 hours.

happy tuesday.
