I haven't had any time in the last week to blog. So allow me to catch up.

First, I woke up two weeks ago with mild bell's palsy. Strange and True. Not sure what brought it on but there is was...my right half of my central face was paralyzed. Lucky for me, it was mild. Wasn't extremely noticeable to others until I pointed it out. But the first week, I had a very watery right eye and had to manually shut it every 20 minutes or so. But this could have been much worse. So I guess I was lucky with that.

Then, both kids got sick with some coughing then runny noses (always tons of fun with toddlers...gross) then Seth got an ear infection. Bring on the Amoxycillan. But of course, this is all going to happen when I am slated to attend the HIMSS conference downtown. I went to 3 of the 4 days. And luckily the day I was planning to not go because of doctor's appointments, was the same day of sleet and snow. Thank you for that small favor.

Another good favor was that Christian was able to call in and use some comp time Tuesday last week to help me get the kids to the doctor's office while I had my doctor's appointment. Then we took turns going to the pharmacy since they were so backed up. Then I was trying to find a silver lining in the fact that our hot water heater finally died on that same day that Christian was off work. Thank goodness. Not so good that it died while having 2 sick little ones with nasty sheets. Oh well, when it rains, it pours.

And one last boot in the butt last week? Our most profitable vending machine was stolen from the Kroger in Conyers. Yea! That was just the last straw we needed to go ahead and sell our vending business. I am glad we tried it but it was more work than the money was worth. We figured that Christian can just work one extra job a month and bring home the same money. Oh well. Now, I just need to find time to list the vending machines on Craigslist. Any takers?
