We had a pretty good start to the weekend; we met up with one of Katherine’s former teachers for lunch on Saturday and then took advantage of our Lifetime Fitness membership to swim with the kids. I was feeling great before we got into the pool, but by the time I got out my nose was running and I was feeling like I had a cold.
When I woke on Sunday, I was miserable. I got the kids downstairs watching TV so Robin could sleep a bit more (Jonathan had had a few bad nights, so she needed it) and crashed on the guest bed downstairs.
Unfortunately, while I was in bed and Thomas was distracted by the TV, Katherine decided that the fishtank needed to be redecorated. Surprisingly, she didn’t get water everywhere, but many of the decorative items that we had removed she plopped back in the tank.
Later in the afternoon, Robin took the kids back to Lifetime and I crashed for a couple hours. I got to bed early and slept late, and am feeling much better today (although quite a bit worse than baseline). With any luck, I’ll be the only one with this cold — I’m not looking forward to Jonathan having it…
