Good morning (as he sips on a cup of coffee that is keeping him awake)....
What is Ballcoach doing here on a school day at 11:00 a.m.? School must be in session....
It is...and Bambina is sick as she can be. It was a long, long night and has been an even worse morning. Bless her heart, she is in bad shape. Fever, vomit, and you can guess what else....not the best of morning here. We have been going since 1:30ish last night. I'm in the middle of washing blankets, sheets, pillow covers, couch cushion covers, rugs from the bathroom, rugs from the living room, and rugs from the hallway. Needless to say, there are clothes from all three of us that need to be washed...multiple sets of clothes....
But you know what....it is all good. Christmas is coming and it is coming fast!
On a sidenote, can you give Pepto to a four year old?

I'm sorry she's so sick! I don't if Pepto can help a four year-old, but I'll send a prayer for her!
Poor little thing .. they have Pepto for Children that you can give her. Watered down Gatorade will help too. Hope she feels better soon.
Good Afternoon ... we woke up to a little frost this morning 
and the house at 58 degrees. Got a another couple chilly mornings in the forecast before a brief warm up (although not that big of a warm up as a couple weeks ago) and I am hoping its the last warm up of the season. Its been way to warm this month. Leaves dying and falling off the trees before they get the chance to change to those pretty fall colors. Local radio station started their Christmas Music survey yesterday. You get to vote on the songs with the tops songs being played on the radio to selecting the date you want them to start playing Christmas music (https://www.morefmphilly.com/vip_contest/101-1-more-fm-christmas-music-survey-2017/) We did the survey last night and the kids were sing right along with the clips and helping to vote for their favorites. It was a fun evening.

There is a naseau liquid that helps...its mainly some kind of sweetener. My 2 boys had to use it to calm the stomach. I cant find the bottle now but they had no problem taking it due to the sweetness of it.Was bad because you couldnt dose anything because they couldnt keep it down long enough for it to work.
Our leaves are doing the same thing Minta.Good Afternoon ... we woke up to a little frost this morning
Whine turns into vinegar when it gets old. This vintage has most certainly gone bad.So this morning on the Megyn Kelly show, they are COMPLAINING about Hallmark starting Christmas movies before Halloween! "Can't we just have Halloween?" Bah Humbugs!!!
Nobody says she has to watch!!!!
Thanks, Holiday! Enjoy yours, too!
Good afternoon, CGY! It's a little busy, but nothing out of the normal. I am not "teaching" much, just making sure that students are staying on task. It's all so quick. Within the next week or so, I am sure that we'll see It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown appear on TV. Each year the special makes me super excited - not because I enjoy so much, but rather the fact that it signifies the beginning of the "Holiday" specials coming up in the next two months.
So many things to look forward to, including decorating, of course! Luckily, I've already celebrated Thanksgiving, so my Christmas decorations can go up the that the Christmas Season begins!
Thanks about the Dodgeball. It's fun. I may be spry at times, but I am certainly not fast enough to get out of the way of some of these shots. There are some good arms out there!
Have a great day as well!
It's so heartbreaking to have a pet so out of their comfort zone and behave abnormally at the vet. Oh well... as long as we can get through the visits and they remain healthy, it's all good.
Thanks, Martine... You have just reminded me that I have homemade beans in my fridge! I forgot all about them. Mmm! Butternut Squash Casserole sounds delicious, too! It's been a long time since I've had casserole. My grandma used to make it all the time. I miss tasting it!
Happy Birthday to Amber! Hope she has a great day!!
Hope you have fun at Hallmark!
I have NO candy yet. Maybe tonight!
Have a great day CGY!
That's chilly in your house this morning. brrrrr! You're a tough one!
I would have to break down & turn on the heat at 58º - yep, wimpy! 
Hope you enjoyed the soup - have a great day!!
Do we all need to go vote & pick to start the music NOW???Good Afternoon ... we woke up to a little frost this morning
How fun!! Have a great day Minta!
