our neighbor must thing we’re germaphobes

At least once a day we’re mopping the floor of the comedor.  With copious amounts of water, soap and sometimes bleach.  There is SO MUCH water on the floor we need the squeegee and mops and many rags to get up all the cleaning items.  Are we addled by the influenza porcino?  Nah, just absently allowing the washer to overflow again.

Jamie worked his magic fingers on our washer and it is spinning its heart content again, but in order to get all the water out of the drum, we need to lower the exit hose to a waiting garrafon.  Except sometimes we forget the hose is in the garrafon and an entire rinse cycle spills on the floor.  So again, we have a Very Clean Comedor.  And again, our neighbors wonder why we’re such clean fanatics.

Jamie also recently worked his magic fingers on the van and we have moved from a frequently working van to an always working van.  Much more convenient that way.

The boys are on the mend, the sore throats going away, fevers decreasing to 38C and under, and we’re now bracing for the economic fallout and possibility of a pandemic that the flu may bring.  We’re hoping for a nonevent.

  • How is Jaime – he is the one in the risk category. Lots of love from us (so far no symptoms). The doc did a nose swab on Cate yesterday & we’ll get results today. She was totally unconcerned as the girls are presenting with almost no symptoms and they expect a severe rxn if they had the new flu. Lots of love, C

  • Just checking in on you guys adn wondering how you all are. Glad the boys are feeling better. How are you, Jamie and the girlies?

    Looks like there are a few suspected cases near us…will ping you the article. Cory was sick with sore throat, cough and lethargy yesterday, but bounced back by the evening and the rest of us have had stuffy nose and cough last week. No fever, so looks like we are experiencing common colds so far.

    Christina! Glad to hear you guys are feeling fine. Let us know the swab results.

  • Hey Jody – Swab results negative for every flu type. whew!

  • Great news Christina!
