Under the Weather :(

When the tickly, hacking cough turned into chills, fever & bodyaches, I tried everything- I think I even ate 2 bags of oranges all by myself!

But after a few days, even though the fever was down, the cough was worse...so I gave in and went to the Dr.

Now, after 4 days on a Z-pack, neb treatments, inhalers & more- the bodyaches are gone but the cough is still hanging on. I haven't been out of the house in over a week!!

Kelley has sent food over for us several times this week (thanks, sweetie!), but I did finally cook a decent meal tonight. We had roast beef with potatoes and carrots and butter beans :) What did you cook on a cold rainy night?

I also started working on a dress for Sarah this afternoon. Trying to get it done before Sunday- just plugging away in spurts between cough attacks. I may get it finished since I cheated and picked up one I cut out ages ago, but never started sewing together for one reason or another ;)

It seems nearly impossible to find cute, appropriate dresses- or anything else for that matter- for an older teen. The other roadblock is that she usually dislikes (translate- wouldn't be found dead in) anything that I buy, make, or even look at ;)

She's so stinking cute, I'm determined her clothes are gonna be cute, too (anyway I'm gonna try!)
