The holidays are upon us

It may not seem like it, but you know it's coming. Thanksgiving is right around the corner, and there's NO slowing down between the feast and the New Year. I'm further behind in shopping than I ever have before. I had been anticipating a lot of online ordering, but I'm watching the days creep up on how much time we have left to make it before the great un-wrap fest, and there just aren't that many days! Where did the time go?

This week, the time got sunk into a child who's sick. I've been taking every other day off to take care of a son with a fever, and a cough that sounds like he can't breathe. My husband has been taking the alternate days to do the same.

Family has started asking what to get the sick kid for his birthday too, which is also quickly approaching. No keen ideas there either, we'll see what I come up with. Off to wipe the nose, pat the back for the cough, and make sure the Tylenol is being administered on the schedule.
