Nomination: Worst Christmas Ever

[hrj]

So far the stomach bug appears to have run through at least four members of the gathering. I may be the next to fall, although so far I just have discomfort and complete lack of appetite. But the evening is young yet. Since we have a couple more cousins in town for the east coast memorial service tomorrow, the epidemiological scope can only increase. (To say nothing of the entire membership of the Vassalboro Friends Meeting.)

I did go off to get in a couple hours of skiing this afternoon. The snow was a little grainy but they'd done significant trail grooming and it was quite enjoyable. There's rain scheduled for tomorrow and then snow the next two days, so I'm hoping for two or three more good sessions. Also on tap for the next several days is the movement of all the large furniture items out of my Dad's house, including the piano that my brother here is getting. The theory is to do this while we have lots of home-grown labor. By the time we get to it, hopefully the plague will have run its course.

For the family as a whole, perhaps. Strictly for me, though, I still have to go with "Stranded and broke in the Albany bus depot while the rest of you were comfortable in Munich."

The stomach bug hit my family gathering as well. Ugh.
