Snowmageddon? Really? Really.

February 11, 2010 in pure prattle by Erin
Wednesday, 2/9 through Thursday, 2/10 we had Snowmageddon Part II (not loving that name). This is on top of the 18″-24″ we got on 2/5-2/6—yeah, happy birthday to me—so I’m soooo not thrilled.

Ugh. The kiddo stayed home again today. It started yesterday afternoon—sneezing. Then later in the night he said his throat started to hurt. :( He was up all night, and then finally fell back asleep at 7am. Obviously I can’t send him to school at 8:30 then. So, he stayed home.

She’s there for 7 days (Tuesday-Friday) when she starts this noise thing, like a backwards sneeze (there is such a thing!). Then, her nose [...]
