Jonah was showing symptoms of an ear infection last night and Guinevere has been coughing. I sooooo hope they are not getting sick again! I am still on the Augmenten, and I almost feel normal again ( Read more... )

I was feeling better this morning, but I still have a hoarse voice. Now I have sudden explosive coughs due to tickles in my throat -- probably my least favorite cold symptom. I had to go get Jonah yesterday because he had a fever. So when I went to the doctor (and got Augmenten...woo hoo!), I asked her to check his ears. They were fine, which ( Read more... )

I think I finally got the nasty bug that I hoped to avoid. I am actually quite surprised it took so long, with Jonah, Guin, and Chad all sick. It is most definitely in my sinuses, so I am not uncomfortable, and even feel that I should be at work. But I am constantly coughing and have a nasty sounding voice thanks to the post-nasal drip. I am ( Read more... )

I went to my Grandma's funeral this weekend. My dad and I flew up on Friday, and I flew back today. We missed our flight on Friday and ended up waiting at the airport for 5 hours to get on a later flight. I will probably tell more about that later ( Read more... )

My grandma passed away on Sunday at 1:40 pm. My mom had just flown back up there on Saturday, and so got to spend her last night with her. She is doing pretty well. I am flying up on Friday with my dad and Jonah to go to the funeral on Saturday, then I will fly back home on Sunday. My parents are driving down on Monday, but I have to be back at ( Read more... )

I can deal with Jonah waking up in the middle of the night, and I can deal with Guinevere waking up, but it's hard to deal with one of them waking the other up. We were up for 2-3 hours last night, and Chad finally took Jonah for a drive. I couldn't leave Guin's side or she would start crying. But Jonah wanted me to hold him at the same time. ( Read more... )

I just got my copy of the 10th anniversary edition of the BBC Pride & Prejudice. The first thing I noticed is that they apparently airbrushed Colin Firth's hair, because it looks totally different than it does on the other version I had. I liked it better before ( Read more... )

Oh my goodness! So much has happened I don't even know where to start. Something had to give, so it was email and livejournal (the two main things I do online). I just checked my email last night for the first time since Tuesday. I couldn't believe it had need that long! I am still catching up on livejournal, so just because I didn't comment ( Read more... )

First she had the flu -- a really nasty strain, too. Then she went to the hospital (again) last night and found out she has viral meningitis. Not fun while 4 months pregnant. The baby looked great at the ultrasound they did today, and she is staying overnight to make sure everything is good. Good thing my mom was already home so she can help ( Read more... )
