Here we are now. Entertain us.Jake is now in Day Two of a cold. I kept him home yesterday in hopes that it would be a quick recovery, only to have him wake up this morning, worse. Backfire! I’m not complaining too much; my kids are rarely sick and rarely miss school. Even with swollen, […]

Well, hello there, Friday! It’s been a long time since I posted on a Friday evening.

The fog has lifted, so to speak. It turns out that I have a raging sinus infection, which certainly explains why I was just getting worse and worse and why I would sleep for ten hours a day and still be completely exhausted and why I felt like I was walking around underwater and why […]
