There were rumors. A friend of the boy has head lice. A friend that has done sleepovers at the house (not my place). Uh oh. The boy has been scratching his head for some time, but the story from mom was "dry scalp." Uh oh. So the word comes down tonight from mom: 2 hours of combing the little buggers out of his hair along with the requisite shampoo/conditioner/chemicals. Fun. So I started the preemptive strikes here, vacuuming the couch, pulling blankets we both used, and will do multiple loads of bedding laundry tomorrow night. Woohoo. Just what the doctor ordered. Guess it'll be a trip to the drug store in my future...
