Happy today

I am not sure what has happened but this has been a pretty good week so far. maybe I am slowing winning. He has been coming home after work instead of going elsewhere. Today has been a smiling day. I just hope that it continues. I would much rather smile than cry.

This morning started bad. I heard a voice in my dreams then I realized that it was not in my dreams it was at the foot of my bed. Candy was calling my name. We needed to get Brook to the doctor. The day before she had been stung between the eyes by possibly a wasp. This morning when she got up the whole side of her face was swollen. One eye was closed. She took Benedryl but an hour and half later it was no better. By the time we got to doctor's office there was swelling on the other side of her face. He advised us to keep giving her the medicine and cold compresses and to stay upright. he also said that if not better in 24 hours to bring her back in. This is right after leaving doctor's office.  This was taken this evening. Poor baby. School starts tomorrow. I cannot make her go looking like that.
And right now it looks like we may be back in the doctor's office.
School. I talked to her teacher last night. They will not be carrying books. All they will have to carry is a trapper keeper.
 Ok. Time to vacuum again. Birds put feathers all over the living room everyday!

  2. Poor Brook, that certainly is a very bad re-action.  Maybe she ought to carry something in case she gets stung again if she has reactions like that.  Hope she is better soon. Give her a hug from me. Glad to know that things are brighter on the other front.  It is so quiet on journals, can you let me know if you are getting alerts please.
