Shoo the Flu

Never in my life do I remember a time when so many schools were closed due to the flu. Baraga schools closed until at least Wednesday. Many of the schools across the western UP are closed for the remainder of the week. Imagine that. Imagine scrambling for day care and all the other problem school closing causes. The kids aren't going to be happy if they have to make up these days in June.

I've also heard the Northern Michigan University has considered closing. I hope they make those days up if they do. College kids don't seem to get their money worth of education. They are alway off on break.

I haven't heard of too many people in our area getting an H1N1 shot. By the time the vacine gets here all of our children will have had the flu. The regular seasonal flu shot have been given in record numbers, but as for the H1N1, we are still waiting.
