Philippe went back to work today (2 hours late), and the day was almost "normal". We were able to go to Costco and do a much needed grocery run.

I'm starting to feel better from the sinus infection. Just discomfort and no real pain this morning. Hope it stays that way.

My sons was really helpful with the Christmas tree. He carried it back to the attic all by himself. With my sciatica, I would not have been able to do it.

I agree, that is a great plan, Barbara. I'm also glad that you got a nap in Lainie. Oscar has had something since before Thanksgiving and it's just not leaving. Waiting for the blood work to come back. Chest xrays are good.

You guys went back early, Veronique. We're off until next Monday. The UCs start on the 16th and Community College sometime after that.

A small happy for me, I got my hair colored and trimmed up. It's just a boost to my ego!!!

I took my son and my grandson out to lunch today. Suffering from a sciatica that does not want to let go, I have been walking with the help of a cane. When Gabriel (3 years old) saw that, he said: Grandma is getting old! It came from the heart, and his Dad was very embarrassed. It was so funny it made my day!
