Sick, check.

I have been fighting off a cold the past few days and this AM, woke up to find that my voice is but a whisper.  Of course, raising smart-A kids in a snarky home environment doesn't help. 

"What dad? We can't hear you.  Speak up!" 

Funny kids.  You want 'em?

The good thing is that I don't feel "stay in bed all day sick" more like a "don't visit babies, hang out in a large group or go scuba-diving" sick.

Compared to some of my friends who have been seriously laid up, I'll take it!
