It's so difficult to be ill when you have small children. Like the commercial says, there is no "taking a sick day" with little ones.

I'm making progress on the lap quilt; I'm working on the last 25% of the length now. I knotted around the edges first and across the middle from both directions to anchor it, and now I'm filling in. Knots in yarn to stabilize the comforter. I didn't get to eBay stuff, but it will feel good to finish this and I think tonight it is a possibility. When it is finished I'll put it in the wash with a couple of towels on gentle and be sure it comes out okay, then put it in the mail.

The kitchen is clean, trash goes out for morning pickup, and I'll have a lot of shredded papers to go. I cleared off some horizontal surfaces yesterday and filed receipts from the trip. Tomorrow, back to the grindstone.
