for the other shoe to drop. Sunday night and yesterday, oldest son was sick with a fever and horrific cough. He is better today – no fever – so he will be off to school. We never have just one of us get sick (I guess that is the beauty of family – we share in the misery equally) so it’s just a matter of time waiting to see who is next. I am willing to bet money that I get it just in time for the back to back dinners we have this weekend. For Friday’s Pasta Dinner I have to make two trays of ziti and a tray of meatballs as well as a dessert. For Saturday’s dinner, there’s dessert again.
There’s only a handful of us cooking for the fundraising dinner on Friday, so no opportunities to back out. I have to guard against getting this for Friday. Look for me, I’ll be packing the Lysol in a double holster.

Keeping my fingers crossed for you!!! Reminds me of the days of my youth… waaaay back when! I’m the oldest of 4 kids and there’s just 2-1/2 years between me and my youngest sister… there are twin boys tucked between. It was in the days before birth control – and mumps and measles vaccines… so when the first one of us got measles, we all got measles; and when the first one of us got mumps, we all – and Mom! – got mumps. I don’t know how she did it… but I do know why there are 4-1/2 years between my first and second and 13-1/2 between my second and third!!!
