Now It's My Turn!

I have LIVED at the doctor's office this last week. Jayce had croup over the weekend. I thought she was getting better, but then on Monday she woke up with gross goupy eyes! I took her in AGAIN and the doctor gave us some drops and also told me that her throat looked horrible. He tested her for strep. Luckily it came back negative, but still, poor thing. Emily has been sick also. She mostly just has an icky runny nose and a horrible cough. I hate coughs. They sound horrible, but I know that they are doing their job to keep the congestion out of their lungs.

Anyway, now it is my turn. I have been sick since last Saturday and hoped that it was just allergies or a cold that would go away in a couple of days. Well, last night I was HORRIBLE. I remember sleeping and thinking, Les, take it easy and breath slow so that you can keep breathing. Isn't that horrible! Ick. Anyway, it is my turn to head into the doctor. Why is it so much easier to take your kids in then head in yourself?

On a little side note, I am headed to a gardening class at Home Depot tonight to learn how to take care of our lawn, plant some pretty baskets, and grow a garden. I don't have much of a green thumb, although I would like to think that I do!!! I am going to get my veggies planted this weekend. I want to plant zucchini (and only 2 plants this year instead of the 6 I planted last year!!!), squash, tomatoes, jalapeno peppers (great for pepper jelly, YUMMO!!), and I want to try some green beans this year and cucumbers. I want to make my own pickles and fresh green beans from your garden are the BEST!! Anyway, wish me luck! I am going to plant my garden while Jared works on our new swing set! We are supposed to pick it up Saturday morning and then it is of to Work Work Work for ol Jar!!! He finished a basement, he can put together a swing set!
