(no subject)

Three kids are asleep! (Two stayed home from school today.) Unfortunately, I have the hacking, spastic cough--and the four-year-old is NOT asleep. She's bored. She wants me to read to her. (No go. I can barely breathe without coughing.)

I'm out of library books, too. :(

I've been drinking ginger root tea; hopefully the claims that it is antiviral are true. I even went out and bought more ginger root should it catch on with everyone. Secretly I suspect the antiviral properties just aren't concentrated enough. But hey, it tastes good, and at the moment I'm drinking it, I'm not coughing, and that is a good thing.

I hope everyone else is very, very healthy!
