This horrible cold thing has just gone through Brevig. Everyone is sick! Everyone got sick within a matter of a couple days. It's so strange. We tried to have school on Monday despite the fact that most of the staff was the walking dead. Only 22 students out of 100 showed up. It was so bad we got out of school early and had the next two days cancelled. It was a wise move by the administration. My husband and I have been miserable the whole time. People haven't been showing up to work all around town. I've never seen so many people get sick at once.

But at last we are recovering. In fact, we are also taking a little time off. C.O. and I are going to Tucson, Arizona to see my friend. We leave on the first plane after school tomorrow. We fly all night, have a 12 hour lay over in Salt Lake City, then arrive in Tucson late Friday night. We're looking forward to the warm weather, eating out, fresh fruits and veggies. Yummy, yummy. I think I'll eat at least one salad every day. We so rarely see fresh produce up here and some times I just crave it.
