Snort!

Dragging my ass through what may or may not be the swine flu - survey says - probably not, but still our household has ground to a very slow motion version of its usual busy self. Three of the kids are flat on various couches and the youngest is unusually unbouncy.

Surprised myself with how worked up I have been over the h1n1 thing - done my usual thing of going into research mode and I feel a little better having plowed through a bunch of different articles from a bunch of different sources and cross checking those sources.

I am no more afraid of the vaccine than I am of any other vaccine - which is to say that I have a healthy respect for it and its possible side effects and yes I do believe those to be rare.

I am grateful that my brood does not seem to have any of the underlying conditions that would put them at greater risk.

Ah ha! I (re)found you! I was perusing old blog posts of mine and am enjoying reconnecting with internet friends of past. It is wonderful to catch up, and see these new incarnations of you! And your wonderful photographs! Beautiful!

Here's to all of those fabulous children (and you!) getting better, and back up to speed in no time!
