Update of the sickies

We are all slowly recovering here. Steph is back at work (as of yesterday) - he only made it into work for about 3 hours on Thursday and Friday last week, and even then it was pushing it. Ellie's ER visit was like a dream.. Her coughing never went back to a scary level, and her cold itself never got all that bad. Kat and Dani are in the recovery phase. Kat stayed home from school on Monday, but back at it on Tuesday - though she may have over done it a little outside after school. Dani is slowly getting there. Her cold has completely knocked her on her butt and she slept in Tuesday morning until 930am, and then had an hour nap mid afternoon, and went to sleep for the night at 730pm. For those that know Dani well - this sleep pattern is NOT her in the least. She does not sleep in. She does not nap. And she does not go to bed before her normal 815 bedtime. So all three of them happening on the same day means that she is most definitely sick. But other than a runny nose, a slight cough, a poor appetite and the need for sleep, she hasn't been too bad. It could always be worse.

As for me. With a recovering husband, and 3 sick children, I wasn't really allowed to get sick to the full extent - which I suppose is a good thing, but I know I will have the side effects of this cold/flu for a while yet because it never got to fully infect me. I had a rough day on Sunday with two naps, but Monday I was back in charge, and didn't have time to wallow in my sickness. So other than being tired, and having a nagging cough and sore throat I'm doing quite well. :)

No new updates to give on the house or the job situations. The only thing I can add is we have to pick out our colours for the exterior by the weekend for the house. If the timing is going as planned, we are proud owners of a big hole by now. ;)
