I'm sick. Teary-eyed, snot dripping, sore throat, hoarse voice, headache-y sick. And I can't call in sick. Yeah, today's gonna be fun.

The boys' room. It's not really that big of a room. But apparently you can squeeze in a crib, twin bed, double bed and 2 dressers. The toddler picked out the sheets for the double. He likes trees. Clean diapers. Af…
