House of ILLNESS

Both N & J remain ill, lots of coughing, lots of medicine and finally the smaller sized bottles of water going around. We spent a portion of the morning practicing writing first names and making drawings, then had an impromptu "picnic" int he living room, enjoying some fresh strawberries. Now Nicki is sleeping and Julia, believe it or not, has commandeered my satellite radio and is listening to a children's channel- presently it is the story "three little pigs" which she finds quite a coincidence since all morning long she was drawing "baby piggies".

Red Sox can clinch the wild card today so I am excited.

I am trying hard to figure out some way to visit my sister and new brother in London, who knows if it is possible, it sure is not affordable.
