I’m pretty sure I’ve come down with the flu, now. D still seems OK. J is OK in the mornings but slowly gets worn down and by afternoon he’s fairly puny and has a high fever again. C is mostly OK…he feels warm occasionally but I’m not sure he’s getting it…or at least not as [...]

J came down with a bad case of flu symptoms yesterday afternoon. When I called the pediatrician at 4:00 they told me to call this AM if he was still feeling bad and we’d do a flu test. When D called them about 15 minutes ago, the answering service acted like they weren’t [...]

Anyway…it was just an [...]

I can’t believe we already got our NC refund. We haven’t even received our federal refund yet, though I expect it tomorrow. Yay for the NC DOR…I am impressed.
I have big plans for our federal refund. First, I am paying off the remainder of J’s preschool tuition for the year, almost $400. Then, [...]

I’ve been looking for a way to make some extra money from home. After a little research, it seems like CafePress is a pretty simple way to do it! So I started a store today. I’m not done creating new items, but it’s a start. Check it out. And maybe [...]
