Julie, what a hassle.

I hope there are no more problems waiting to make their appearance.
Hi Rose

Good to see you!
I still have to pack.

The kids are packed and I think Gary is packed (in hopes of going). But, par for the course, Mom is the last.
I worked on taxes both yesterday and today. I changed my appointment twice now with the accountant and we're down to the wire. So, I really needed to get my figures in line. I'm ready -- it only took all day yesterday and most of the morning today -- starting at about 6 a.m. to finish them up. I'm glad I'm done and ready.
I took the boys out for a bike ride to Cameron's school this afternoon. No sooner do we get there and Cameron's in pain -- complaining of both ears hurting. Since he camped out with Scouts Friday night in the cold, off to the treatment center we went.

Sunday afternoon, just as bad as the ER when it comes to waiting. The good news is that he doesn't have an ear infection -- yet. The better news is that the doctor gave us a prescription to fill if he's still complaining of pain tomorrow. So, I know by Thursday, either way, he'll be on the mend. I'm just trying to avoid a trip to Centra Care while we're down in Florida.
Amy & Cheryl, it looks like it's going to cool off a bit for our week there. Are you wearing sweatshirts in the mornings/evenings? I don't want to over pack if I don't have to (because I do that naturally) and bring more than we truly need.
