103+ fevers here at The Plague Plaza. An interesting time for all. Eldest is puffy-faced today. The others are getting better. Elf and I are watching our temp as a matter of caution.
Yesterday was the 2nd Annual Midtown Wine Crawl. Initial estimates of attendance were 80. Actualities by the end of registration revealed 300+ with an interest in vintages and appetizers. It was amazing, and a good break between one set of fevers and the next. We'll have to put it on our calendar for next year -- several locations had $10 wine flights, with nice snacks. We're looking forward to going back to Ecco for dinner one day soon.
Now, if we can just get everyone healthy for the morning, nobody has to miss anymore school (74 kids were out at the elementary school on Friday). Alas, the eldest seems to have passed it along to her boy, which means it will get into the athletic circles, and on to the rest of the school, by the end of the week. Whee!
All this, of course, is beyond me. I can put a thermometer in an ear, and dose out the occasional pain reliever, but I'm so far out of my element I'm getting nervous. Da elfwife is much better at this than I am. Which is why I hope she never gets sick again for the rest of her life.
Now, back to watching Hello Dolly on the Tivo.
