what a weekend...
tobin left on thursday for an annual mountain bike trip to arkansas to ride "the womble." he and a bunch of bike buddies rent cabins and ride and ride and ride. i've never ridden it, but i hear wonderful things about this 37 mile long trail...t, a, and i are heading that way this spring.
avery, very suddenly, became ill on thursday night. he was up all night, miserable...me too.
he stayed home from school on friday, after much encouragement on my part...the kid is a do-er! i shuttled back and forth between work and home, feeding him and checking in. his fever kept climbing and climbing and his mood kept dropping and dropping. i made chicken noodle soup for dinner and then, finally, to bed for both of us.
then, at 3am-ish, i am awoken by the police, a phone call and a house call...talk about FREAKING me out.
somebody had thrown something through a window at the bike shop. for those of you who haven't visited the shop, it is located on campus corner, right across from the university, amongst a lot of hot drinking spots for college kids. this is not the first incident we've dealt with through the years.
once i got into the shop i discovered the thrown object was a bottle of beer...the bottle did not break, but the 1/2 inch glass did...go figure.
grrr....
so, a couple of hours later, i was able to get a bit more sleep and then up to nurse the sick boy.
tobin, being totally out of phone service, had no idea any of this was going down.
he arrived home last night, YAY! and was filled in by both of us.
avery is feeling a bit better today...no fever! and tobin is off dealing with the window.
what a weekend!
