Painting sickness.....

Killerbee paints! Yeah!


G taking a break....


Good job K!

Today I went over to help a friend, K, paint her new house! WooHoo! It's her first house and it is very nice and cozy. We were painting her dining and living rooms, plus a room that she will use for her office and the bedrooms. I went over for several hours and contributed to the living and dining rooms but then had to scoot home because of my typing demands....SOB! I actually kind of like to paint. We did a pretty good job and K supplied pizza...then Stu stopped by to try to light the pilot on the water heater but alas, was not able to. I told K to call the gas company and tell them she smells gas and they GOTTA come out and help! She was going to see if her neighbor could stop by later...

Lulabell has been good and sick all week. She stayed home from school all week, much to Peaches' incredulous disbelief (she's gonna stay home AGAIN?!?!?). However, she was legitimately sick with the flu, vomiting, fever, bad cough, headache, aches and pains. Thankfully, she seems to be over the worst of it now and nobody else has caught it (Thank God!) She has been monumentally bored however and actually REQUESTED to return to school but mom had to turn her down. She should be good to go on Monday (let's hope!) We are desperately trying to learn all her songs for her songfest which is in two weeks! There are like seven of them so this has been a little overwhelming but we are making progress. Not much else to report except we got a lovely snowstorm Thursday evening with about 5 inches of snow, making everything all pretty again. Now (Saturday), it's all getting slushy mushy again...ugh! Trying out a new recipe for dinner. I had these chicken wings, made a batter out of mild, egg, flour and salt, dipped the chicken in that, then dipped it again in crushed cornflakes....so, it smells good so far and I will let you know how they are next time. Have a good week!
