My veteran, Jeff left today for four days of military duty in Arizona. He has arrived safely and has an early morning. Time always goes by fast for him while he is there. We still await the results of the promotion board. I guess we should know some time in December.
Sarah is back at Hope College tonight after an unplanned break for a virus that has caused over 400 students, faculty and staff to become ill. As you know, Sarah was home and her case was very brief. Luckily no one else has had any symptoms. We should have been sick by now if we were going to get it. Still I think we will continue to pray for a few more days and breathe a sigh of a relief after the school musical is over.
Mary felt ill today during the string workshop she attended with the HS Orchestra. She thinks it was from the pizza lunch. She is fine tonight and had no symptoms related to the virus outbreak. Sarah reported this weekend that she is needing to use her inhaler before and during exercise. We called the doc and he put her on a daily med to help control her asthma. She exercises several times a week with the softball team. Matt is doing great. We all watched the video of the show from yesterday and he loved to explain some of the issues with the scenery. He knows all of the songs too. Mary did a great job with her part and her solo. The HS Choir concert DVD is in and we watched that too. How much fun we had watching it together. I think it sounded really good.
Tomorrow is work, play practice and the soccer banquet. I just made brownies! Thursday is chores, quilting (Which is not a chore), and opening night. Friday work, show and Jeff comes home late. Saturday I get a haircut, Sunday School practice, Birthday Party and the shows final performance. Whew! Lots to do!
Better get off to bed for some sleep. I am going to need it!
Grace
