what have we been up to?
Well, a little of everything, it seems! Dan's been super busy at work, which is great, since the auto industry isn't so outstanding. I guess the parts side is the one to be on. I've been finishing up stuff for Reminisce for the upcoming CHA show while fighting a nasty cold. I went to help with some mailings at the office in North Liberty on Monday... yikes... I was there for about an hour before the snow started & needless to say, the drive home was unnerving! Collin's been busy with school & a special project called Invention Convention. We've been collecting the pieces for him to build a cookie dispenser & hope that Uncle Rick could help us out with the building of it soon. Friday he's supposed to go with his class to Eagle Days in Keokuk... last year the boys went with my parents & really enjoyed it. Evan, since Sunday morning, has been feeling completely lousy. He woke up with a horrible stuffed head & was down & out all day with a fever. Monday I had sent him to school because he thought he'd be ok, but when he got off the bus, I knew that I shouldn't have sent him. He had a headache & looked exhausted. Yesterday, he got up & with the horrible weather & him not feeling well, I kept him home. Then I noticed some pimple-like things on his chin. Today we went to the Doc, his fever had come back last night & the spots were spreading & he was looking like a mini-teen with bad acne. Impetego was the verdict. YUCK. Poor guy.. his cold's getting better, though. Lydia has been super busy, as usual. She was the one who started the whole sinus yuck & was nice enough to share with me & Evan. She's getting better, but it's still hanging on. I'm hoping between her cold getting better & making some trips to the chiropractor (little lady is completely out of wack!) that she'll start sleeping better SOON! She's been up at least once every night since before Christmas. I've been thankful for my coffee every morning!
