Everything is still same old, same old around here. I'm still sick, my lungs ache, my joints ache, and I walk like a little old lady. I did get to talk with a lady from the state Dept. of Health for half an hour this afternoon about my "suspected" case of pertussis. I guess blood tests just don't say it like a grown culture does.

I went home sick Monday afternoon, and spent Tuesday at home as well. This whole up and moving around with lots of talking leads to horrible coughing spells, fevers, and not much fun. I need to call my doctor again, which I would have done had that dept. of health lady not kept me on the phone for so freakin' long this afternoon!

We had our first Knowledge Bowl meet today. It is affectionately known as KB or Kick Ball. The team did better than last year, but still have a ways to go when it comes to being aggressive on buzzer and having more confidence in saying an answer, even if you don't know if it is correct. No one is going to laugh at you, really!

I found a new home for my couch and chair, so now all I need to do is schedule the arrival of the one I purchased over Christmas break. It's a full-sized sofa bed in a moss green chenille, and I can't wait for it to arrive! I'll gain some much needed space in my living room, and I'll have a bed for guests to sleep on.
