Thanks, dear readers, for all the get-well notes for my little one. He has been up since 3am, so blogging has been a bit lighter than usual this morning. He hates Pedialyte, so we gave in and let him have some milk. Big mistake! Anyway, he’s much better and, unlike me, he has a naturally sunny disposition that is carrying him through his bout.

I haven’t even attempted to wade through e-mails received from 11pm last night onward, so apologies in advance if I haven’t gotten back to you. May take a bit of time before I slog through them.
