Huck has caught another bug. His temp is about 102 today and, he says, "the cords that hold in my eyes are twisted up. I need to put soft pillows on them." Bless his heart. The flu is going around his school and from all the reports, these are the first symptoms of this strain. He hadn't been sick from age 2 to 7, but I suddenly can't keep him well!
So, I have an on campus clinical lab day that I am missing today, because a sick boy wants his mom. Fortunately, I earned some brownie points last semester with my teacher by volunteering to put in a week with the cancer registry of Alabama, so my grade will be fine.
I got a call from a local big wig asking me to do a performance on the 25th. Very short notice, but still, it's always nice to be called for something like this. I'm to do two songs with my harp and one just my voice with piano accompaniment, and 2 as a duet with a guy I've never met, with songs I don't know. I must squeeze in some practice time.

Aww, sorry that your son is sick. My daughter was always way more important to me than work. Probably why I have just a job as opposed to a career.
Congrats on being in demand for harp gigs.

My daughter is also infested with flu. She is grown, but came over to be sick at my house so I could pet her a little. That made my day. I hope I don't catch the flu, but I don't feel great. persistent headache, which is also a symptom, but no body aches yet.
The harp/singing thing sounds great. You need to start charging something.
Tell Huck to feel better. Let him look at skulladay.blogspot.com
Dag Nab It! No sickness allowed at Nestlewood! See what happens when they go out into the wide wide world? Germs! Blast!
Congrats on being in musical demand again. I wish I could hear you in person.
Try a cool cloth with some Lavender on those pesky eye cords. Poor Huck!
I hope that Huck is feeling better soon! Good luck at the concert!
