There's wind and then there's wind.

It's the time of year when colds start making the rounds. Little e succumbed this weekend. Two kids and one staff member were absent from school today. E is starting to feel puny. I'm doing okay so far and hope I can keep it that way.

Send good thoughts to our readers in Northern Europe and the UK who are being battered by hurricane force winds.
