Weeknotes #337

Rowan woke up on Saturday morning complaining about pain in his ear. Eri and I decided that I should take him to the ENT clinic that’s close to our house. I forgot you could book online (and so skip most of the waiting part) and so, as a result, Rowan and I ended up having to sit in the waiting room for almost two hours. This would have been difficult enough but after about 90 minutes, Rowan started complaining that his stomach hurt. Sure enough, he then proceeded to vomit. I managed to stop this from going all over the floor and, somehow, over most of our clothes. There was a mad dash to the bathroom and an emergency visit by Emma with clean shirts and, after waiting about half an hour more or so, we were able to see the doctor. I’m still not sure what he had. He took Monday and Tuesday off school but nobody else fell ill. Unsure if Emma or John would feel sick, we didn’t venture further away than a trip to the library. That’s not especially notable except that this was the first…
