Will it suffice that this 45-yr-old self is pleased for you? :)

Which one did you try? I have my eye on Sea and Sky.

It's like Sonlight--great in the catalog, not everyone's cuppa.

Hey, does he know my son?

:)

I hit that low a long time ago!

I was seriously thinking of cosplaying chloe.

I would have killed to go too. Someday...

I know. When we were in Ireland in maybe 1992 it was all Michael Jordan.

"Chicago: bang-bang!"

Quick and easy food,I think that sounds perfect.

Glad you finally got there! How's your son doing?

Not so good. I updated the post.

Or a prodigy. He could be a hedge fund manager trying to scam the student rate. Can't be too careful.

good point.

The funny thing is my DD has a "school ID" (because a company gave them away free for homeschoolers last fall, and I sent for one, figuring she'd enjoy having it), but I don't have a "Faculty ID"-because I'd have to pay for mine!

The Dr. said he's the oldest kid he's ever seen with it. Weird.

Maybe you will be at the end soon. My DS1 had it annually or more until about 8. My other two kids get it too, although a bit less frequently. It stinks when a regular cold turns into a pretty horrible event most times :/ Hope he feels better and you get some rest. Croup=sleepless nights for parents!

I hate croup. Bless his heart. Middle-of- the-night, sudden-onset-croup once scared us so bad we called EMS. (We had never seen croup before) That stridor & gasping is TERRIFYING. :( Hope he's on the mend already.

I am so tired. It's probably healthier this way...

Don't you get headaches if you miss?

Not always. I figured it out yesterday after I was just dragging. I was looking at the clock around 4 wondering when I could get to bed.

I hope you feel better soon. :(

Start a poll about what you should do! Call it Book Nerd Problems! we' re your people!

Congratulations! I hope my email comes soon.

[jealous] I've been waiting my whole life for that!

I'm jealous, we tried all the various fixes and even took ours apart to see if we could fix it. Time for a new one!

I had been whining about it for a month. Then I just decided to give it one last shot. Thank goodness for youtube videos.

So jealous. I spent the morning selling books at a curriculum sale. Would love to have been there.

Good for you! Hope you're not too sore tomorrow!

Awesome! I dream about running. A lot. But physically just never actually put foot to pavement. So yay for you!

I haven't ran since high school- when we had to run. I am still sore today and its pouring rain so I get another day to recover.
