I was feeling fine when I woke up on
Tuesday. I don’t know what I
had encountered before noon, but I had a throbbing headache just after
12:00. Probably Richard and I should
have not gone to the temple, but we did.
We left the house before 1:00 but did not get to Central Point until
2:40. Traffic was horrible. It doesn’t take that
long to get to Ashland.
We were signed up for the 3:00 session. Just
after 5:00 we were on our way to Ashland to pick up Jaime. We met her at a 7-11 and I had gone inside to
get something for my headache. Richard
and Ally got sick first and then Biff and then me and Clair – I think Clair
may have been hit the hardest. She looks
terrible.
Jaime has spent many a Thanksgivings
feeling sick. Ironically, she is the
only one who is well. None of the rest
of us even want to eat – let alone a
feast. Biff made chicken soup and I took
Jaime to a friend in the ward so that she could have a real Thanksgiving – not just
dinner but in the presence of company that give reason to thank.
Meanwhile there is a turkey, yams and
pies waiting to be had. Maybe early in December?
