A Short Week

Tuesday Cassie was well enough to return to school, and packed two bags of critters and toys to take with her to Grma's in the evening. The weather turned cold and we both tried out the body glue to keep up our socks. That stuff works great! My socks didn't fall at all, and Cassie reports her socks stayed up as well. And it washed off easily with soap and water.

I got home at 9:15pm and grabbed my shower while Mark finished Cassie's bath. Her cough at bedtime wouldn't stop, so she cuddled on my lap while I watched my "House" timer tape. By 11pm the Dimetapp finally kicked in and she was able to lie down and sleep. I didn't take my Gabapentin so I could be aware of Cassie during the night. Sadly, this meant I got two hours of sleep while Cassie slept through the night with no trouble!

She awoke at 6:15am Wednesday and suggested she didn't need to go to school since she still had a cough. I reminded her there was no school today and she was going to Vickie's daycare instead. Cassie was so excited about going to Vickie's that she was up, dressed, her hair done and her coat on by 6:45am! And I hadn't managed yet to locate my clothes.

I had the Day From Heck at work. Ill-behaved patrons and computers that acted up were the theme. So I stopped at Tico's on the way home and got a small bag of chips, 4-oz of hot sauce, and three slices of chocolate mint pie. Cassie and I had a nice snack when I got home.

Then Cassie and I went to Target for laundry soap. We live on the wild side!
