Kids still sick, I took a sick day yesterday and would dearly love one today but I need to be at work for a visitor. Toilet got progressively more plugged yesterday so today I got to be a plumber, complete with a trip to home depot for a new plunger and a snake. Ended up with a compressed-air drain cleaner instead of a snake, and it worked on the second try. Some day Kyle will sleep in past 5:15 again and my life will be back to normal.
