Today’s irony

Finally, in the early hours of yesterday, I caught the nasty illness everyone had been passing around my house. After many many hours of vomiting and diarrhea and chills, the sort of sessions that definitively prove your faith in God because you find yourself bargaining with Him, I fell in to a previously unheard-of 11-hour sleep.

I woke up this morning feeling wonderfully refreshed:  It was all behind me. I went downstairs to fix myself some breakfast. My mother-in-law asked how I was feeling, and I said, “I feel great!”

Then I leaned over to pull on my boots and threw out my back.

    My wife Ruth just came down with the sore throat and congestion combo that requires antibiotics. But I bet it will be the last time she gets sick for the rest of the year.

    Not even a little bit funny Uncle Rich…Poor Ruth..I have been sick since Tuesday before Christmas with some wretched bug or another…I wish her a more rapid recovery than I am having. Happy New Year to the Roesbergs
