Home Alone (2)

I am still home alone.  But the week is half done, so they will be back soon.  I feel bad for my wife though.  She has all the kids, one is sick, and they are at a place where the only thing to do is swim, watch TV or play with the other kids.  Since one child is sick, no swimming.  You think about that.  1/3 of the activities involve water, but since one kid is sick, no swimming.  Good thing Grandma is there.  Of course, I am sure that taking 8-10 kids under the age of 10 to a pool by yourself is no picnic.

The Pecan is ill.  My great wife took him to Urgent care in Brainerd last night.  He has a double ear infection.  I didn’t even think he HAD double ears, just two single ones.  Who knew?!  He also has a little wheeziness(sp?) in his chest, so he gets the nebulizer again.  Except that the nebulizer is here at home.  My wife is a great adventurer, and decided to wait until DARK to take him, thus getting herself lost.  Luckily, I was home with a fast internet connection and was able to help her on her way.  On a plus side to that, I got to talk to her for quite a while, something that I don’t usually get to do, even when she is home.  So I am thankful for that. I am also thankful that all my children are healthy and that the Pecan will be ok in a few days.

Oh, about those posts from my Seattle trip.  I am still thinking about that, but secretly hoping you will all forget about it.  Here is a synopsis. Train, train, train, flat North Dakota, Montana, Washington.  Seattle (YEA). Rain, rain, rain, rain, rain.  Repreat backward.  That is ‘bout it.  Hope you all enjoyed the trip.
