Monday at the Fun House - Not!

We survived the weekend. Woo hoo! We continue with the nebulizer treatments for the girlies but are just doing it in the evening at this point. It seems to help, although Doodle asks me why that stuff makes her "funny" every time. It does indeed make her "funny." I remember it making me jittery before, but it makes her an absolute crazy person. She bounces off the walls and is hilarious. It's not a good thing... They're still coughing, although it's loosening some. I'm still limiting any activity because as soon as they do something exciting they start in with the coughing again. Last night the twinkies were watching Nature on PBS with us and started laughing - not a good thing. It took forever to get them settled down again. I did pick up their school work today, though, so we'll be doing some of that tomorrow. I'm not going to push them too fast on getting back to normal. They had this very same stuff last year at this time and it lasted almost a month. I'm hoping for a quicker recovery this time!

As for me, I'm headed back to the ENT tomorrow. I've got to get this mess in my sinuses taken care of one way or another. My head hurts all the time. I can tolerate it when I'm on meds, but I can't live in a fog while I'm taking care of three kiddos. Something's gotta give! Maybe we're on the right track.

I want to take a second to thank our own personal angel who brought pizza for lunch today. I cannot even begin to express how much we all appreciated it. The girls had a pizza picnic in the living room, complete with pop, even, while watching a movie. It was definitely a special treat!
