2DAY

Testings almost over. The little boy I'm testing is almost done. He was so concerned about finishing close to the time his classmates do because he missed a day from being ill.

It's a wonder I'm not ill. Hunnee came home all red in the face and stuffy-nosed. We went out to eat at one of our favorite restaurants for home-type cooking. They have changed their menu, who is why I thought he was not eating well. But then, if one does not like breading, why order a chicken fried steak? There was so MUCH breading on it he forgot what type of meat was supposed to be in there.

I don't eat fried foods and he eats not very much of it--at least around me. But still, to my mind it was not a good idea to mix a cold with grease. It came with white gravy and he asked for more gravy on the side. the thought made me nauseous: grease on grease with a side of grease. Ew! He was not happy aboout it, too because he'd wanted the chicken and dumplings flavored grease, but they'd changed the menu since we'd been there last. So chicken fried grease it was.

Less than half-way through the meal he's REALLY not looking so good. His forearms are even red. I felt his forehead and he was quite warm--more so than usual when he tries to freeze me out of the house by turning the thermostat down to 65 winter or summer.

So he's sick in the usual way for a change. Then my DirecTV is out because of the storm we had last Thursday evening. My daughter and I can deal a few days without TV but Hunnee can't--and to have him trapped at home over the weekend with a bad cold--possibly the flu and no TV?!!!! Oh, no that would make the entire household miserable. So he's shipped off to Kenner to get better and get back in time for spring break. We're still being careful about my catching colds from him because of the chemo chemicals but I think they're gone if not almost.

Oh, I almost forgot why I started this entry. You know how it is in movies where someone goes back in time and tries not to meet him/herself because of the space/time continuum getting all screwed up or the world will come to an end. Well, something like that has happened just now. I collect articles about visual impairments--certain conditions in particular. I have them come to my school email so that I can share and post them. They come through Google Alerts. Anyway, it finally happened that I came through my own Google Alert in my own email box today. I wonder if I will go crazy or if the space/time continuum will be disrupted because of my doings!!! Maybe time will fold back on itself like a pair of run over loafers and we will be the toe cheese!!

I hope I don't catch something snotty and snEEzy in time for the holidays after being around the sick little boy and my sick husband. That's how it usually works for me.

Aw, yeah! I got that article from the Kenner-Picayune about Hunnee and grandson doing the lEAP workshop in preparation for state testing. A coworker had it laminated for me today at work. Grandson says he will not charge me for his autograph.

I'm outta here.
