Back to the Grind...

First of all, thank you for all of your prayers. Hailey is doing much better. I guess her pneumonia is viral so she if off antibiotics. Hopes to be home soon. I am supposed to work on Wednesday and Friday, however, I am sick now. Started with aches, sore throat and then morphed into a productive cough, congestion and feeling really tired. Hard to sleep when I don't feel well. Oh and I have laryngitis, no singing in church for me this morning!

Church service was nice, the orchestra played very well and we had a congregational potluck lunch. I got up early and made yams and stuffing. The yams are all gone and I brought some stuffing home. Mary got back to University of Michigan safely around 6 pm after having lots of fun at home. She helped Matthew with staining the wood of a bench that he made. They worked together on using the wood burning kit to engrave our name and decorations on the top. They also worked on Matthew's ongoing project of building an igloo out of milk cartons. Sarah finished her homework and had time to play Band Hero on the Wii with Mary before she left and watched some TV with Matthew and me. She left when we went bowling and arrived home safely. We bowled pretty well tonight (each of us had a sad game) but ended up losing all four points. Luckily we are still in first place, but not by much.

Besides attending the Baby Shower on Saturday, we also put up the Christmas Tree and had dinner at the Outback. Good Steak and a Bloomin' Onion. We watched a lot of college football and were saddened by the loss of Michigan and Florida, but happy to have a win for the Sooners! We watched the Nevada/Boise State game; Boy! what an exciting finish.

Here's what is coming up:

Monday~Oil Change/Tires Rotated on the Prius; Kids Choir and Chimes; Widdle Down my "To Do List"; Doctor's appointment for me? Matthew begins the One Act Show as part of stage management.
