The Conundrum of Sick

Everyone in our family is in some stage of whatever virus is going around. Today, I stayed indoors with 4yo Drake and 21mo Guppy, so we could keep quiet and rest. But whenever I sit still, I look around and see something that needs to be done. I either go do it, which isn’t restful, or I fret that I’m not doing it, which isn’t really restful either. I think the solutions are either to be too sick to notice anything, or to lie in bed with an eye mask. The latter doesn’t seem like a sensible choice, what with two small kids and all.
