The Xmas Curse Lives ON! December 08 2008
LAst year, the xmas curse missed us. We had just moved (that was a curse itself) and I don’t think it could find us.
This year we are apparently right back.
Noah.
Has the chicken pox.
You may remember (of course you don’t…why would you? )that he had the chicken pox when he was about 18 months old…courtesy of his older brother. They got them in June just as school ended and summer began.
It was magical.
Anyway he was home today because of a cough that kept him up a bit last night. Nothing bad but seemed like he would be sick today.
He wasn’t. Not really.
Only this afternoon while he was running around the house without a shirt on (he is almost ALWAYS in his underwear only) I noticed a couple of red bumps around his waistband/belly button region.
These have multiplied into about 10 and 2 of them are not a little white in the middle.
CHICKENPOX!
I know it know it know it!
And to top it all off, as a favour to my favourite fellow employee at my old retail job, I accepted a few shifts this week until after xmas…(they have only one person that can open and close right now…) anyway I am supposed to open the store tomorrow morning.
Oops.
She is going to drive to my house and punch me right in the face.
I know it.
Also, Feffie’s wife? Tracy?
Has never had the chicken pox.
What is up with that?
