So I am sitting in bed... afraid to try to sleep with this rotten cold. Last night I took night time cold pills. They succeeded in making me drowsy, but did not allow me to actually sleep.

This week summer has finally arrived... yet I have a daycare parent that seems convinced that summer is never to be?!?!

This week it has been at least 20 degrees celcius by 8am. Yet, I have had this 3 year old boy arrive each day (close ( Read more... )

The repair lady called me last Sunday night. She was re-scheduling my appointment to look at my washer... but then she started to tell me how the vomiting and diarrhea were actually side effects of the medication she is on. She wasn't sure at first whether it was the flu.... blah blah blah.... now she is on medication to help alleviate the side ( Read more... )

I am sitting here in our van on the way back from Fargo and Grand Forks. I don’t have internet on the open highway, so I will be typing this to post later :)

This weekend has been an interesting weekend (to say the least).
