Not a good week by any standards. We still had a house guest and we were all really sick. The kids started feeling better by the end of the week. I on the other hand did not, nor did Grandma. (Still not feeling well if you can believe that!) We accomplished nothing, not even visiting time as we were all sick in bed for the most part! What a bummer!
