Long month

I know, I know....it's been forever!!! I actually have a draft of a post that I haven't been able to publish because I can't upload any pictures to it. It tells all about the changes that have been happening over at the other house, but you can't see any them! Since the last time I put pictures of it on, we've insulated, sheetrocked, textured, and now painted, as well as had the outside stuccoed. It definitely looks like a house now and not just a construction project. The reason I can't upload pictures now is that Bret put all this stuff on the computer (firewall, spam-blocker, etc.) to make it safer, and now it's so safe I can't do the stuff I want to do. Hopefully I'll figure out a way around it soon.

The other reason I haven't been online for the past month or so is that I've been sick almost the entire time. It started out as some viral flu thing, then had strep, then tonsilitis. They finally found an antibiotic that started to work (third one was a charm!!), but then I had an allergic reaction to it and developed a rash over my entire body. The worst part was having it on the bottom of my feet - yikes!!! They put me back on the second antibiotic and I had the same reaction, so I ended up off all antibiotics. I had no voice for 3 weeks, which I'm sure my students thought was a great thing!! Now I have pink eye in both eyes so I'm home again. My doctor recommended, since it's highly contagious and I have 135 students today, that I not contaminate all of them. What a party pooper!! : ) Hopefully this will be the last of the "gunk" I get this year, but as soon as I think that....it's something else! We'll just have to wait and see!

Hope you're all well and healthier than we've been this year! I'll try and post again before another month goes by!!!!!
