Shades of Gray: Oh Yeah, We're in Maine!

Well, yesterday and today were full days! Of 'excitement'! First off, yesterday morning, the kids got on the school bus at 8am. At 8:50am, I received a call that Alex had fallen and hit his head on the corner of a bookshelf! Thinking the worst - stitches, hospital, trying to get him to sit still for all that!!!!! Not what I had planned to do. So off I went to see him in the nurse's office at school. You know head wounds, they always bleed so much! And of course, it was NOT AS BAD AS I HAD IMAGINED!!! Thank God for that one! :) He was not happy about having Mommy wipe his face or letting me even look at it but we got him cleaned up and butterfly bandaged, good to go. So Alex spent the day lounging around playing Legos and watching movies while Mommy got some housework done. That was what I was planning anyway so all was not lost. :)

Chelsie had her final skating lesson yesterday. She has progressed considerably since we started. She will remain in the same level but she received a certificate and badge for her completion and attendance. Good job Chels!

Kevin came home last night from working out of town (down in Worcester, Mass.). It's always nicer when I know that he is home with us instead of being a couple hours away. I never sleep well when he's not here so I tend to stay up really late. Not a good plan.

So after all the housework (usual:dusting, vaccumming, dishes, laundry, etc.) yesterday, I woke up this morning and felt like I'd been through a dust storm!! Congested, headache, just plain horrible! I've come to the conclusion that I'm allergic to housework!!!! :) Just kidding! But I think I might start wearing a mask when doing the aforementioned chores. Actually, I noticed last spring that my allergies here are far worse than they were in Vancouver! :( Not happy! On the up side of that though, Kevin and Chelsie's allergies seem to have subsided here! Go figure!

THEN, it started snowing!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's the 'Oh Yeah, We're in Maine' part....
because here we are at quarter of 5 and it's sunny AGAIN!!! I give up!

Alex went to his first Thearpeutic Horseback Riding class today. They said he did quite well and was ALL smiles while on 'FireFly'. I figured he'd have a great time.

Well, I said a while ago that I'd include pictures from ice fishing so here they are enjoy!

May all your days be sunny MINUS the snow! :)
