The children are finally feeling better!!!

Things here are finally getting less germy wormy...Johnny still has three days left on his antibiotic but he is feeling better. Meghan's lungs seem to have cleared up and we may be able to stop the constant breathing treatments. They are cleared to go back to school after the holidays but I hate the thought of sending them back to all those germs. But I will because they miss it very much and all kids have germs and spread them to each other. The stuff they get now is just one less thing to contract in kindergarten. I can't keep them in a bubble no matter how much I may want to some days. We will just be much more careful when Meghan shows any sign of a respiratory problem.

I had a meeting with my school advisor and have gotten all the kinks worked out of my computer based degree plan and have been green lighted to graduate in May of 2008. I have applied for graduation and will be all set as long as I pass each of my classes these last two semesters. I don't know the date yet but I do know that it is a 9 am graduation ceremony and that each student is given a certain number of tickets for "the show". The good part is that Teresa and I are graduating in the same ceremony so we get to consolidate our family visitors instead of making everyone travel twice or on different dates or times. It is so strange the way it has worked out for the two of us.

I can't believe that I am finally going to finish something. It is going to be great to finally have graduated from something. (and before I turn 40 too!!)

Kevin has taken the week off so that I can get caught up on work and school. He makes it look so easy but I am not complaining. It makes life easier to have a helper. Of course Tarah helps out a lot too but she is a busy bee these days too!

I am looking forward to spending Thanksgiving in Amarillo. It helps to spend time with family and friends to remind us of what is really important in this crazy, buzy and sometimes out of control world.
