Justice is served

I have been feeling much better the past couple of days.  I’m taking Mucinex  DM and it has really helped.  I am still struggling with a drippy nose and coughing yuck from my chest. 

Tuesday night we played games with friends.  Friends from SC, Harvey and Julie stopped in for a visit and even though they have been here since Friday, yesterday was the first time we had a chance to see them.  Between the Grand’s being here and me being sick.  We had a great fun night.

I was happy to hear Monday that finally after almost 10 years and billions of dollars Osama bin Laden has been brought to justice.  Although i have to admit being so sick on Monday i really didn’t comprehend what i had heard.  Several days later and feeling better it has finally sunk in and I pray that peace and closure can come to all those who have personally been affected by 9/11.  I know that one life does not replace another but ..  The Bible says an eye for eye and hopefully all those family and friends of those who’s lives were lost in the Twin Towers, Airplane and Pentagon may begin a closure of justice has been served.

I’m sick

Ughhh .. now i remember why i do not like to be North in April .. I’m sick with allergies, sinus and chest congestion.  Yesterday my asthma was wild and i used my inhaler all day long.

I have spent most of the day in bed with cold chills, fever and aching all over.  Hopefully my medication will kick in soon.

My night didn’t get any better .. i have been sick all night long and in bed all day and night long.

A Cold Day to be Sick!

Today has been a cloudy and chilly actually to me it's been downright cold day.  Here is our campsite.  right now it’s not under water. 

My flowers are enjoying the rain, their blooming.

We spent the day with grand kids again today, although i have to admit Papa did most of it as i went from the living room to bed.  Later their parents came to get them.  They left around 7.30 pm and since i’m sick i headed to bed.

A Weekend of Grand Kids

We spent the weekend with the grand kids.  They came to spend the night at Grandma’s.  Saturday was a nice day for the kids to play outside riding bikes.

Riding their favorite toy the 4 wheeler.

Later that night the rain came again and so we played inside and watched cartoons.  Here is Toby after his bath and Hailey playing with her toys.

Papa fixed yummy Mac & Cheese

The sun is out!!

Today the sun came out and although the temps could be warmer to my liking. After lunch i sat outside and visited with some other campers who came for the weekend.  We had a good visit and then it was time for dinner.

After dinner we took a needed run to Wal-mart to stock up on grocery for the week and junk food for the grand kids who are coming tomorrow. $60 bucks worth .. ughhh

Tonight was another night to bed early for me as i sat outside near 2 camp fire's today and my asthma was not liking that.  I used my inhaler both times  and i know i'm not suppose to be near them but i like visiting with others.  Plus i think i’m getting hubby’s sinus infection.  My throat and ears hurt from drainage.  I have to get rested up for my little jewels who are coming tomorrow.  I’m so excited to see them.

Dentist appointment

I was up around 6 am!  Hubby has a dentist appointment.  We arrived and they took hubby back but since he has been sick and fighting a sinus infection they couldn’t do anything to him.  So we left and headed to Aldies to pick up a few things and then back home.

Hubby went back to bed as he is sick.  Later i went up and got in the indoor pool and hot tub with Emily and Becky.  We had a good swim and the hot tub felt good. 

I came home and yes the rain started again!  Ughh more rain.  I was in bed by 8 pm as I wasn’t beginning to feel well.

I’m sick of Rain!

Today has been no different then the past 2 weeks.  It started out to be a cloudy day and by afternoon the rain began and hasn’t stopped.  Now cool temps have arrived and the weather is getting the best of me.

Other then one night of driving in hail for over a half hour we have been fortunate to miss most of the severe storms that areas around us, Missouri, Tennessee, Mississippi and other states have been experiencing. 

Our campsite does flood but one plus is we are parked across the road from the brick bathhouse in case we have to head there from storms. 

Tonight i have done nothing.  The rain and cold has gotten to me and I'm down in my back big time.  It’s going to be an early night to bed laying on heating pads and sucking down the pain pills.  I’m so ready for sunshine and warm temps … I so remember why i do not like coming to Illinois in April!
