Today's OneWord: Resting

"I'm just resting!" I tried to complain, but already I was being hoisted out of bed, thrown into a stiff, unyielding suit, and practically wheeled out of the room. I knew that this family reunion was important to my father, but that was the main problem I had: It was important only to my father. As I was sandwiched between my brother and sister in the backseat of my parents' Volvo, I was becoming convinced that the only way to get through this day was begging my grandfather to let me sneak sips of port from his glass when my mother wasn't looking.
