If there is such a thing as a 24-hour flu, I just had one. Well, I suffered of it longer, but the fever, headache and other significant symptoms took about 24 hours only. Some of it still lingers but its is not too bad. It seems to go round in the family, almost everyone is having some of the symptoms.

The weather has been cold, around -20 °C most days. Now it seems to be warming up a bit, but not too much for the snow melt away. In fact, some more has been promised. Real winter weather for once during Christmas.

Fine images: I love those overall warm colors contrasting with the white snow. And the fluffiness of the snow in #2 is amazing, definitely a sign off really low temperatures.

It seems that you and your family had a good share of all viruses that were/are around. In our home it was a bit better, everybody got one just once, and now we keep our fingers crossed that nobody gets sick for christmas.

Yes, the fluffyness was exceptional, really light snow. Good insulation for the little critters on the forest floor.
