So since I had 5 days of isolation, I basically just worked and played with the boys at home.
We figured it was pretty much inevitable they were getting it, so we just stayed home until they
did. Here is a shot of Walter's enthusiasm for life.

I got our spring stuff done around the house like draining the hot water tank, washing the windows,
putting out all of the patio furniture, and getting our water fountain running again. It turns out
that the secret to getting more than 2 months from a DC pump is to actually put it in a sock to
protect against worms in the impeller.

The boys say that 'Life is Good on the Deck!' Of course having a ginger ale with a
goofy straw doesn't hurt either.

I think Henry is telling us that he's in the Wutang clan, but I'm not sure.

5 days after testing positive, I decided to crank on my trainer a bit. While I sure didn't feel
awesome, I was surprised that Garmin only thought I was a -2. So that's something.
Walter's birthday
Full size
While this may not make sense to anyone else, I want to record it here for posterity.
The night before Henry's birthday he decided unilaterally that he wanted to 'surprise' Walter
with a card and his own $5 bill. He placed these stickers on the way from Walter's room to the
living room so that Walter would find the card.

The card that Henry made for his brother and stuck a $5 bill (his own money) inside it.

Walter with his birthday present - a new Wii game.

Daddy found this on Amazon since virtually no one sells new Wii games anymore. I'm pretty sure
it's counterfeit but Walter doesn't care that he didn't get instructions - he can figure almost
anything out on the Wii.

Even though Walter was in isolation for his birthday (and so couldn't go to Big Box with his friend Grayson),
he still got to have an ice cream cake and play with his brother.
