So far, I'm not feeling ill. My toe is throbbing and sitting is an issue, but my overall health is good ... and I'd like to keep it that way. I have Zycam ready for the slightest indication of illness and have been good about not sharing food (something that happens frequently when you have children who are picky eaters and a wife who makes amazing meals) and washing my hands.
The only thing that I'm not doing is getting enough sleep. Last week, I was up early every day (including this most recent Sunday) and up late every night so I could maximize the time I had with Alex before she returned to Michigan Tech. It was worth every ounce of tiredness; I just hope that doesn't leave me even more open for one of these sneaky viruses to get me.
