The sick wife 2

To our disappointment Evelyn was not much better this morning. I decided to call Kara and stay home from work. Evelyn had taken Tylenol as a fever reducer last night and it must have helped some. We wanted better results and took more in the morning. Tom and I took Olivia to camp and then stopped for breakfast at Beaver’s restaurant. We came home to find Evelyn still in bed. At around 10 all of us but Evelyn went to the horse camp to take pictures of Olivia. She looked good on the horse. We were scheduled to work at the Open Door at noon, so we went to work. I somehow got myself back into the kitchen and washed dishes. It was hotter back there, and I wasn’t very quick at the job. I had to stay longer than the others, but I did leave a bit before the job was entirely finished. We came home to find Evelyn still in bed. She had begun to separate the laundry but stopped. She was complaining about headaches and muscular aches last night but had added an upset stomach to that today. She took more Tylenol and some Pepto Bismol and went back to bed. We are praying that she gets better soon. We don’t know what caused this: she didn’t eat anything unusual and didn’t fall or anything. Stacy and Tom left for the Mystery Dinner Train Ride and the kids and I left Evelyn at home and went to the movie to see “Ratatouille”. It was clever but not too funny to me. The kids said they enjoyed it. We stopped at Pizza Hut and bought a cheese lover’s pizza and brought it home. We ate only a small portion and saved the rest. Off to bed at 10:30.
