I'm just going to make a long story short.

Basically, Ben got a spider bite, didn't realize it at first, and then it ended up getting infected.

He went to the ER on Wednesday morning and they gave him some antibiotics and told him

to rest until it's better.  He's been home from work since Wednesday and we're hoping (sort of)

that he'll be well enough to go back to work on Monday.

Of course, I'm always thrilled to have him home, but he does need to work, and we really

want him to feel better!!!

I took this picture the day he went to the ER.  He was exhausted.  And Gus was very much

enjoying having him home (as were we all)!
