Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ... huhwhuzzat!? ... I'm doing that a lot today. BB has a bad cough and I have a revival of the tummy bug and thus and therefore nights have been very broken.

Well DD went back to school this morning and in spite of the hissing rain went off with a fat grin and a bounce in her step. She cannot wait to see her BFF. ...
