M&N, ain't you never heard of them thar computer viruses? No amount of hand washing or wringing will rid you of them neither.
Bonz, I am sorry to hear that your wonderful little man is feeling poorly. Nowadays even the sniffles are worrisome. Hope he is feeling better now and able to think up some mischief.
Ang, I hear you. I think it better to have school and just weed out folks who are sick and send them home. More efficient. No worries around these parts if there is no school and kids need a place to go. There are many, like myself, who will take them in.
Diva K, you guys just cannot catch a break, it seems there has been one thing after another in your neck of the woods. I hope it gets contained soon and you get your color back and all is right in your world.
TB, since I prepared for the Bird Flu I have ample supplies of most anything. I was once (almost) a Boy Scout and you know their motto.
I hate it when folks take advantage of a situation to make unnecessarily high profits off things. It is not just how much money you earn but HOW you earn it.
JM, Jacob is even cuter than I had imagined and I had imagined him to be very much so. Bet that tickles you both. Thanks for sharing.
Timmie, are you all rested up yet? When is your next trip? Will these new deals tempt you to add one, or more?
I guess I forgot to tell you all that I saved Tom's life at lunch yesterday. It happens so frequently that I do not note it often anymore. He has always been a fast eater, think shovel. When he got his false teeth it made it necessary to chew but he never does like rules, no matter how important they might be. Usually it just makes him hiccup a lot when eating but occasionally he chokes. He choked extremely bad at lunch, his face was as red as Mickey's pants. His brother was sitting next to him and did not notice anything wrong and told me that I was wrong when I said something was not right. I jumped up and ran around to him and beat the living heck of him and got him back to breathing. He has called twice to thank me. I would rather he just chew.
Weekend going well. Boys are being very nice. Right now one is mowing graveyards and one is scoring baseball games so I am all alone. House is a mild wreck but I do not care. The nearly 12 year old crawled into my big red chair with me last night for a snuggle and wanted his back 'tickled'. It has been his thing since he was a baby and seldom occurs anymore except for when he is tired but I was glad to oblige. Parents will be back late tomorrow night and I am taking the boys and the big ones girlfriend out to eat after church tomorrow. It has been wonderful. Only thing that would be better would be to get one of those codes and be able to take them with me to DW.

or better yet 
for old, slow me to keep up, lol. Plus, with dh home full time now, I have less time than I once did for chatting. I'm slowly figuring out how to coexist with him and still get everything (well, most things) done that needs to get done around here.
sore throat,ears but no fever. Main concern is DS#1, he can't just get a cold, he has to "go big". Keeping him healthy is top priority. I sat in the back of gym last night by myself
