Lousy Weekend

[mysid]

My poor daughter is having a lousy weekend. She knows that I have to go over everything with a fine-toothed comb, but she is getting fed up with my nitpicking. Literally.

Yes, friends, lice. We've been having an epidemic of lice at my children's school, and as of a couple days ago, my daughter E is the latest victim. Now we are washing, steam cleaning, and spraying everything. Die, lice, die.

That's been the one good thing in all this. Right at the beginning, the school spread the word that it was nothing to be embarassed about and that lice actually prefer clean hair. As a result, no one is embarassed to admit that they've caught them, and parents are quicker to spread the word to everyone their child might have given them to.

Here's to stigma-free lice!
