Thank You, Mr. Weather...and Happy Birthday to ME!

We wanted you to get cooler, we wanted fall to "feel like" fall...but with your abrupt change you bring the sniffles, croup and some sort of something that I just can't cough up.
We are the "Sick Family," as Parker says. It happens a lot, and we have all been coughing and snorting and sniffling for the last two weeks. This weekend's cooler temps have not assisted us in getting past this either.
Thursday night Logan scared us. I was on my way to the E.R. with him at midnight. Luckily, he got better, so we called the on-call physician and came back home. But his pediatrician suspects what I have feared: asthma. Asthma was something I dealt with as a young teen and in college, and I prayed my children would not have to deal with it. But we are now on a preventative medicine. Now my prayer is that when our mold issue is cleaned up, we will be healthier again.
October 4th is the day work begins to rip out our old floors and replace them in the living room, and we do the drainage work on the crawl space. I am not looking forward to the small demolition work inside my home, but I am excited to get the toxic mold out from under us! If it has caused the cough for the last year...GOOD RIDDANCE!
I had a wonderfully quiet 31st birthday, aside from Alabama football nearly giving me a heart attack. I can't believe I am 31. It just doesn't seem right. I guess adding the years can be exciting and depressing, but as my Momma always says, "it's better than the alternative!" I guess she's right. The Lord has blessed me with a lot in 31 years. So I will keep on going. I am a little anxious to see what the next 31 bring!
