Undesired sick day

I was actually looking forward to working today. There will be few people there, and therefore few interruptions. I had planned on getting some writing done and some assembly of projects organized into notebooks so that people who come and want to see what we do can have an easy way to see that. I will get it done next week.

Today I am at home sick. The nice term for it is "gastroenteritis". I was up all night with this and still do not feel well.

I had a nice Christmas yesterday. My daughter, her "nice" boyfriend, and I went to see the movie "Australia." All three of us liked it (and my daughter and I especially enjoyed looking at Hugh Jackman for nearly 3 hours). I was not expecting for it to be a tear-jerker, but it was. I was grateful for the handful of napkins my daughter brought with her popcorn.

I am going back to bed. It is a wonderful day for it. It is snowing and cold and quiet and dark.

Snowing cold and dark sounds like a perfect recipe for going back to bed.

Hope you feel better soon.

Hope you are better by tomorrow, so as to enjoy a run? and meetings or whatever the weekend has in store for you, Mary.

Get well soon! Now!

Thanks for the recommendation on Australia. I was wondering which of the new movies to go see on New Years.
Thankfully you have several days to recover if you need them!

It sounds like a nice day to be sick. I liked the movie Australia too. It was funny and sad.
