Chicken noodle soup

Yesterday, I was bragging to a colleague that I have not had to call in sick this entire school year.  In fact, my entire family has enjoyed a cold-free year.  But clearly you must already know where this post leads:  just today I started suffering from some kind of bug.  It started with congestion, which could easily be due to allergies.  But it morphed into body aches and fatigue rather quickly.  My wife (love her) made some homemade chicken soup stock for me.  (With chicken bones, of course--the only way to do it, if you ask me.)

I went to bed right away after coming home this afternoon, which explains why I'm up at 2:00 in the morning blogging.  I must be well enough to go to work tomorrow, as I am facilitating a school's first assembly on cultural diversity (or cultural competency, as is the phrase du jour).  After sleeping through the entire evening, it's time now to see if I can coax some additional hours of rest, and be ready for the new day.  I think I'm feeling better--thank goodness for homemade soup!
