Hello October

(cue whining)
On this first day of October, all four of us are sick.
Can't remember the last time we were all sick together.
Mark returned to work today.
He's been sick since Sunday and is missing his deer season.
I spent yesterday sleeping and reading in bed with a headache, chills and coughing.
The kids are both home from school today with sore throats and body aches.
I think I might be able to muster the energy to go to the mailbox.
There are movies from Netflix waiting there.
Looks like we'll be spending the afternoon cuddled up on the couch.
