Update on sick kid, and an old draft post that was kickin' around...

 Lil: still sick and actually worse.  So not strep, as Urgent Care thought on Sunday.  Doctor yesterday said he's seen a LOT of kids with this virus this week.  Fever, bad throat and then painful mouth sores and NASTY swollen-up gums, etc.  Got a prescription for  a numbing mouth rinse.  Slightly helpful - still won't eat more than a mouthful of anything.  May last 4 more days, according to doc.  My week/weekend commitments?  Cancelled.   Sticking close to fever girl, and pushing liquids.

I spied this little dashed-off entry still in draft form, so enjoy:

  • Little habits... we all have 'em.  Diet Cherry Coke, handbags [shiny, shiny!] or whatever it may be. Check out this thoughtful post about what your habit may be costing you in the course of a year.

Hopefully that fever has finally broken. Poor baby with the swollen gums! This will pass and thank goodness that it isn't contagious to adults.
