I remember having this conversation with Scott about how we were doing pretty good in the sickness department this year. I had a theory that because the boys went to daycare at the ski hill that it was full of less germs as people sent their kids there out of luxury while they go for a ski, rather than necessity while they go to work. Whether they got sick from something at daycare or caught Papa's flu who knows, but I feel liked I jinxed myself by saying something. I also remember talking about ACL injuries and how common they were around here and how we had been lucky in the injury department too...
We awoke Wednesday morning to it dumping outside and 10 cms already accumulated at the hill. Kindercare was booked for a half day for both kids and Trev and I were to be treated to a powder weekday together... except Grayson was sick with the flu. Cole went with Trev to the ski hill and Grayson and I spent the day watching every Backyardigan ever made on the couch.
Thursday wasn't much better with Cole coming down with something too. We all had a pretty miserable day indoors. Friday morning Grayson woke up at 4:45 am crying with a fever and Trev informed me he couldn't patrol that day and we would have to go for xrays that morning. He injured his ankle playing hockey the night before. Since everyone was up and we were at the ER by 7:30 am and a few xrays later, Trev has no breaks just a bad sprain. 4-6 weeks, great. Forget knocking on wood, just stop talking before you jinx yourself!
