    Hope you get better Ray. Don't want it spreading to the other side of town before we head out to Portugal.

    If you come to a fork in the road; take it, and then put it down so someone else can use it.

    You and me both, Ray.

    My son and I had the same flu, despite both my wife and I getting flu shots. Between the crazy road trip and the holiday festivities, I have been spending the past couple of days laid up in bed.

    I'd make sure your grandkids get taken to the doctor's, just to be safe.

    CDC announced that the proportion of deaths from pneumonia and the influenza virus now meets the threshold for an epidemic.

    Ha! Just traveling and dealing with being sick. We usually have a nanny, but she's also out for the holidays.

    So it's been my wife taking care of two sick people.

    One of the medics at the base hospital told my husband that the shot wasn't a good match this year so lots of people who got shots are still getting the flu. I'm holding my breath where my mom is concerned. If she gets it, she'll die.

    My wife is a doctor and has spent the better part of the last month dealing with people who have the flu. Additionally, the CDC released a statement a coupla weeks ago stating that they missed the mark on this years flu strains. I'm still glad I got the shot, however as some coverage is better than none.

    Once in awhile you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right.
