The little girl we carpool to school in the morning said " we are going to visit Mississippi."
Chela asked when?
H said this summer...D asked "Who is Mississippi?" Dh explained Mississippi is a state and a river...Than asked D what he thought it was. D said "I thought H said Miss Old Hippie, I thought maybe H was going to see her Grandma."

coughing...I am never going to stop. I am so worn out by it, there needs to be a smilie of me laying on my back, with my tounge hanging out the side of my mouth.

I think I have a line on a nanny! I don't even want to think that, or she might vanish before I get to her! They do that around here. My GF needed a nurse, she has gone through three since school started...One couldn't handle the job, one smoked in front of medically fragile daughter, and the last one really wasn't a nurse,...

Forget to blog that Dh got a job! He has had 2yrs. of retirement, and really wants to go back to work. I always thought he was too young to retire...He retired, but all his buddies were still working, so he had no-one to play with. Anyway he is going to work for the state of Ca., and they are fast tracking him. They want him to start Nov. 16th. instead of Dec. 1st. He will be working 2hrs. south of here, on the coast. A little town on hwy.1. Being sent there is sort of like an FBI officer getting...

Holloween is J's birthday...so she gets to choose ToT, or costume party. This year she wanted to ToT...It didn't happen, by 3p.m. she and C were having huge melt downs. So I cancelled ToT, ran to town filled up four ToT bags with cute toys and some candy. Got home all the children had their costumes on, so we played ToT...Had peporoni pizza that looked like a jack-o-lantrine, and ate pumpkin pie. J wanted pumpkin pie and not B-day cake. They had fun J want's to do the same next year...Okay by me!...

Chest is starting to clear, I can cough and sneeze without screaming, and grabbing my my side...

Day #8 of the flu...My tail isn't curly, and I have yet to dig up any truffles. Second trip to the Doc. and I'm now on another 10 days of antibiotics. The Doc. did give me some cough syrup that make me happy...

Devin does not have penumonia, this is good.

Francesca is well on her way to mending.

Doc. told me to go home and go to bed for another three days...ROTFLMAO...Before we even left the office. I thought Dh was just going lay down and die...

goes on, my turn now. I feel okay but then the advil wears off...ugh...D is going to the Dr. tomorrow again just to make me feel better. He keeps spikeing temps, 103, 104. We give him tylonal and he's fine for awhile, then the feaver goes up again. Plus dierrah(sp) and a cough. My poor little guy.

F's blood work came back fine, Dr. thinks it is allergies. She and C have very croupy coughs, and D has been running high feavers when the tylonal wears off. J is fine and is excited about going to the pumpkin patch with her class today.

The house
keepers are comming this morning, I feel like I need a bull dozer to move all the junk out so they have a clear area to clean. Better get started.

I am so thankful...I need a clear head and a plan. So I can move forward. At the moment my issues have to wait, we need to make sure that Francesca is well, and taken care of.

Thanks everyone for the well wishes.

Patty

Have turned my world upside down. Not ready to share about me...I can't even think about it.

But Francesca had an allergic reaction to pecans yesterday, and a little while later she had a grandmal seizure...If she has another we are off to UCSF for all the testing. Pedi thinks it might be related to her allergic reaction. I have to hope so...having a seizure disorder is a sad thing.
