Well, Hello Friday!
A bit of rambling to end the week:
I have still been struggling with this cold/sinus infection/mystery illness. Coughing, sneezing, blowing…running a fairly consistent low grade fever. I started my third round of antibiotics earlier this week and am keeping my fingers crossed. This is becoming ridiculous!! It’s been nearly two months. I don’t think I’ve ever been sick for this long before, I hope I never experience it again.
Starr has been home on and off this week as she has been feeling run down, head-achy and she is running a fever too. Although she hasn’t developed any more symptoms to work with. No cough or sore throat. I think she is feeling better today. I hope so!!
My blog reader tells me that there are 668 posts that are currently unread. I will be skimming. A lot!
A person who was an authority figure in Starr’s high school was arrested this week for inappropriate sexual contact with children. It is a sad sad thing, shaking the community soundly. It’s so disheartening when you learn about an adult taking advantage of children. This is the first time that it involves someone we were connected with. We hope that it’s the last time. Hugs to those involved and their families!
Today is Starr’s little sister, Sissy’s, birthday. Big 15! It is also the birthday of DJT’s daughter. Two years ago she suffered a life threatening brain injury after a fall. As she celebrates her 20th birthday, I send her warm thoughts for continued healing. It is such a long journey.
Happy birthday girls!! I love you both. Very much!







I hope you’re feeling better soon.
Have a great weekend.
Kelly, I am sorry you are still not feeling well. Someone needs to bring you a big bowl of chicken soup!
It seems like every day there is something in the news about an adult taking advantage of a child. There was a really disgusting story in the Philly news, luckily they arrested the man before he could act, but his plan was to met up with a mom and her 14 MONTH old daughter…. 14 MONTHS, not 14 YEARS.
I hope this weekend brings you rest and continued healing. For Starr too!
Happy Birthday Sissy!
I hope you get better soon, Kelly. Have they done a sinus CT scan yet? You may have more ‘backup’ than usual in there. I will pray for you.
I will pray for BOTH you and Sissy… I hit submit before I realized my thoughts weren’t all out in type. Oops.
Okay, dear. Have they checked you for CMV? Cytomegalovirus? It is NOT that uncommon and they usually don’t check unless you ask for it. You’re only supposed to get it once but I’ve had it four times – and one of those times it lasted four months. I thought it would NEVER go away. I was at the end when I finally MADE them check for that and it was positive. Just a thought. SO SORRY you are still feeling so BAD!
