That's the worst, when they're sick enough to stay home but not sick enough to be out of commission. Not that I want them at death's door, but when they're still mobile it's nothing but nasty--and you may as well hose the rest of the house down in mucus because they'll cough, wipe, and sneeze everywhere. Boy I'm a cheerful one today.:)
OK, next time I'm sick, I'm coming to your house. That was a day in paradise.
I thought I heard a martini shaker not a cork! Guess I just assumed you would need something a mite stronger than a glass of the grape!
I agree with candy. The next time I'm sick, I'm coming over. You're far better at this than DearSweetHusband.
