Ear infection

I took the kids to a park yesterday with some friends and Douglas suddenly went downhill fast. In half an hour he went from playing happily to lying on my shoulder crying, saying his ear hurt and he wanted to go home.

Luckily, the urgent care was still open when we got home at almost 5 so we made it to Sacramento by 5:30 and he got in to see the doctor. He has an ear infection (again). This bug is about to wipe us out. He's been waking several times during the night needing one thing or another (nose wiped, eyes wiped, blankets pulled up, whatever) and we are tired. The doctor said she's seeing a lot of it - she thinks it's a new adenovirus. Owen has it too, and so do I, but not as bad as Douglas.

The raffle is going on and I've been busy with that, collecting money, giving out new tickets and so forth.
