Kid #2 had no diarrhea and played while I cleaned house and cooked all day for my husband's employee party that I hosted tonight. <BR/><BR/>Yay! I'm so glad they are feeling better. Between the two of them, I was beginning to get a bit, um, frazzled. <BR/><BR/>No writing today, but the house is clean and our employees were happy and had a good time. <BR/><BR/>I know life happens, and I should relax and go with the flow. Anyone who knows me will agree that "flowing" doesn't come naturally to me. :) Must always accomplish what's on the list or expected of me. <BR/><BR/>Oh well, one of life's learning curves, you know?<BR/><BR/>Kathy, hugs on your dad. You have a safe trip.<BR/><BR/>I'm going to bed early so I can accomplish something tomorrow. :)<BR/><BR/>AngelAngelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17010424240956906870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18688033.post-68705852069928402962007-12-10T12:27:00.000-06:002007-12-10T12:27:00.000-06:00I hope the kids are feeling better and that you've...I hope the kids are feeling better and that you've been able to get some rest.Carol Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07018603523305326782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18688033.post-3011810891145932052007-12-10T12:05:00.000-06:002007-12-10T12:05:00.000-06:00So sorry one of the kids are sick, Angel! Tender ...So sorry one of the kids are sick, Angel! Tender loving care is what he/she needs right now and you've got plenty to give. ;-) Lucky kids!<BR/><BR/>Excuses. I've got plenty. I have to leave in two days but I still have to buy presents, wrap them then pack them into boxes to ship at the post office. I was out shopping all afternoon yesterday. I have cards to finish, if possible, and mail, and laundry to wash. I've already finished #4's Spanish dish she started last night and have to drop that off to school. And I wrapped several presents and packed two boxes while washing clothes this morning. <BR/><BR/>I'm taking my laptop with me but I'm not sure what kind of situation I'll find at the hospital. So... excuses are valid on your end and mine. Let's just hope we can find time to write amidst the challenges we face right now.Katherine Bonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14701961380138616355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18688033.post-63070127804313222612007-12-10T09:45:00.000-06:002007-12-10T09:45:00.000-06:00Hugs, Angel!

I can't imagine you had to do a lot of scrubbing, but then again I know how obsessive I get about my house when company is coming.<BR/><BR/>I'm sitting at the car dealer right now while I get a scheduled service. And then I have a couple of errands downtown. *sigh* Probably won't write today, though I brought this laptop with me so I could work on revisions while waiting.<BR/><BR/>But add in a couple of chatty ladies micromanaging social get togethers from afar on their cell phones, a television blaring, and I can hardly settle into work mode.<BR/><BR/>Posting as anon because I don't want to sign in on an open network. :)<BR/><BR/>LynnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18688033.post-82932663512018173202007-12-10T09:36:00.000-06:002007-12-10T09:36:00.000-06:00I'm sorry you have a sick child.

Between getting all my Christmas shopping done so I can leave on the 20th and scrubbing my house for that party last Saturday, I've had no time or energy to write anything but the Christmas letter to go in my cards. I ran on adrenaline all day Saturday and now I've crashed hard. I just want to curl up on the sofa with a cup of cocoa and do nothing. Well... maybe read. Or watch Christmas movies on TV.<BR/><BR/>PMPlayground Monitorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07444337591281145863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18688033.post-77418423420009345032007-12-10T08:57:00.000-06:002007-12-10T08:57:00.000-06:00Oh, Hon!
