The Sickhouse

Alex is sick and now I believe Solomon is sick as well. I don't feel great, but am masking it with various cold medications, so who knows. Alex had a sinus infection and is on antibiotics. Solomon has been fussy for two days, has a runny nose and redness around his eyes. He has his four-month check-up (I can't believe it!!) tomorrow, so maybe they'll give him something then. Hopefully he's not too sick to get his shots. That would be a bummer. Poor little guy. I ran by his daycare today to bring him some tylenol. He started crying when he saw me. He was waking up which made it worse. It was sad.

BTW, Happy birthday to Amy today!!

The weekend was nice except for the sick people I was around. We hung out at home Friday night with Solomon and had Bella Luna for dinner. I LOVE Bella Luna hummus. I could drink it like a milkshake I like it so much. Saturday, we watched the KU game and Alex flipped to football. We killed Nebraska as I thought we would. Yesterday, my parents came over and picked up our two old, extra couches. One was ready for the trash and the other will be stored at their house until the next garage sale. We were able to thoroughly clean the basement in preparation for me working from home and having Solomon there a bit more. It look so much better and less cluttered! I have begun to hate clutter so it feels good.

I may take a personal day tomorrow to take Solomon to his doctor's appointment and clean the house. I might as well take the days off before I leave IPHFHA.

I'm reading a book called Middlesex right now. It's great so far. As my sister put it, it's a nice history lesson.

Middlesex is one of Andy's faves. I started it, but I was preggo with Gus at the time and was too emotional to read it (I know, weird, but that's how I roll...) But I want to finish it b/c I've heard it's awesome.

Hope you can stay healthy!
