'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
Natter 72: We Were Unprepared for This
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Buffista parents, would you take a child to the ER for a 104.5 fever but no other symptoms (apart from perhaps being sleepier than usual, but that's a hard one to gauge)?
urgent care for sure, but E rarely runs a fever.
Not a parent, but I'd be worried enough about anything over 102 to seek medical care.
Absolutely, Kate.
Thanks, everyone. She's had a few fevers that have come and gone pretty easily, but this is the highest she's ever had and I'm worried. M just picked her up from daycare and is on his way to the ER now. Ugh ugh ugh.

Yes, a fever that high can cause problems in and of itself.
Little kids can run much higher than adults safely, but that's a number worth checking out, I think.
I found out today that today is my Friday. We lost an office worker last week and therefore we are down one person to cover the days around Christmas. I semi-volunteered to move days since I was not traveling anywhere, so now I will cover the 23rd and 26th if we have work, but I am off the rest of this week on my vacation days. My plan is to do ALL OF THE THINGS IN MY HOUSE.
Also, it is snowing like crazy, but I think not accumulating too much yet? No one is ever getting home tonight.
We are getting that overnight and I am hoping it is terrible from 5-7 AM so there might be a chance for a snowday. Especially since our boss has bookended our Xmas lunch with meetings giving exactly an hour for to go to pub, eat lunch and get back to the office. I didn't want to do the lunch, but it was cleverly boxed in so I couldn't avoid it.
