Hey Jill!

Baby Blue had a fever all day today but didn't need the sick bucket and acted more and more like herself throughout the day.  So far no one else is sick (I'm hoping that the Tummy Tune-up does the trick in keeping the rest of us from getting it) but if we follow tradition this could take a couple of weeks before we know we're out of the woods.

I struggled a bit with disappointment today.  We had the opportunity to go on a double date with Dan's bro and sis-in-law but since Baby Blue was still sick (and we didn't want to get the Texas Branch sick) we didn't get to go.   Ultimately, it's not the end of the world by any means.

Tonight (I just looked at the clock and realized I should say "last night") we ran out to Sonic to get their $0.99 sundaes and then the grocery store.  I never dreamed that I would think that the low-80's at night was cool.  We even opened up our windows in the car on the drive back and opened up the condo for a bit.  Quite the contrast to the two other times earlier when the kids and I went outside to walk around and get the wiggles out.  One thing nice about the heat is how fast it can wear out some hyper kids who are stuck in a little condo.

The complex we are staying at has been almost a ghost town all week until today.  It's the weekend and it's party time!  I shudder to think what this place is like during peak season or spring break.  It hasn't been all that bad so far just hootin' and hollerin' here and there.  As long as no one wakes up my babes the partiers will be safe.

Tonight (last night- whatevah) I made Irish Boy's patch that he gets to wear over his right eye.  Nothing like my friend Lois has done for her son (especially since I had to sew it by hand) but I think it'll do the trick.

I should probably get to sleep since who knows what later tonight or tomorrow will bring in way of illness or fun.

- it's blahg! mb

I need a cast of characters to keep track of who is who. Which one is Frodo? And why don't you just call him Frodo, for my sake??? How long til you come home? Are you still attending West Hills? Will you be there September 12th????

Hmmm, I guess I do need to update the cast of characters, huh?

"Frodo" is "Tex".

We won't be back until possibly as late as Thanksgiving!!!!! Yikes. So, no I won't be home by 9/12. Are YOU going to be there? Am I going to miss you?!!! Hey drive down to Texas!
