I brought Ivy to a family doctor after school (yes, she was finally feeling well enough to go! No more fever!). Based on her symptoms, Ivy has the flu: 5-7 days of fever, extreme weakness and fatigue, sore legs and back. We came home with multiple prescriptions (of course!) including "Saint Doliprane." They LOVE Doliprane (tylenol/acetaminophen) over here. I filled just the cough syrup antihistamine one.

She also got a prescription for a full spine x-ray since she has had lower back pain for more than a year now. Since Eric has mild scoliosis, the doctor suspects Ivy may have the same so we'll see what's going on there.

And, since French medical care is amazing, our total out of pocket fees were under 11 Euros including the prescription. Had we had no insurance, it would have been 33 Euros total. Nearly unaffordable :)

We went to a few kitchen stores today to look at countertops and finally found one that we both really liked (Quartz Silestone in a pattern called "Blanc Elysee." We are waiting for a few quotes from the kitchen stores, but most likely we'll order from the same place as last time and DIY install it, since it will save thousands of Euros.

We had some brief sun today, then more pouring rain. Rain = snow in the mountains so we are happy!
