The hot then cold then hot again weather we've been having tagged my wife with a head cold yesterday morning. No voice, feels like shit, you know the drill. She took 4 Nyquil liqui-caps to get to sleep last night, when 1 will normally knock her out for 12 hours.
On a better note, my son couldn't be prouder of himself after this weekend. Saturday we (all three of us) made a trip down to the Gun Club in Loveland. I finally got to try out the new XD I bought the weekend before (shoots just about like the other XD I own, except I think the 5" absorbs recoil even better than the 4" does), and because he's been more openly curious about my new pistol than he has been about any of my others, I stood him up on a chair on the firing line, helped him get his hands settled on the grip just right (and wrapped my big ol' ham hocks around those tiny mitts of his to help him control the pistol), and then let him fire off rounds at the ICE "bad guy" target down range. He was so excited, he had me call the target in after each round he touched off, so he could see where he had "shot the bad guy". He put about 7 rounds downrange before he was satisfied (and he ran out of attention span). That target he perforated is now hanging on the back of his bedroom door, and all he could talk about at church yesterday was how he "shot the bad guy". Enough to melt an old bastard's heart. (That's my boy!)
