Middle America's Worldview

I nearly lost my voice Friday. I had been fighting allergies, myself, all week as well. Friday was the worst day for me. Dry, scratchy and unable to keep a simple tone, I am sure I was hard to understand on the phone. Fortunately, most of my contact was made through IM and Email.

Friday night, we had planned to enjoy some quality time with the kids. Kel and I crashed early. The kids had a sleepover in the living room and thoroughly enjoyed it.

When we awoke Saturday morning, I felt a bit better, but Kel still felt awful. I mowed mine and the neighbors yard first thing Saturday morning, before it became too hot. I spent the remaining day halfway cleaning up the house.

Saturday night I made us some bananna splits and milkshakes. Kel and our son wanted a milkshake while our girl and I dove into a homemade bananna split. Yes, they were good. : )

I tried to watch Monster-N-Law with Kel last night as well. I kept getting interrupted with work issues. However, from what I seen of it, Jane Fonda acted like a spoiled kid not getting her way. Personally, if I had that kind of retirement, I would find something else to do than make my kids life hell.

Afterwards, I tried to watch Assault on Precinct 13. Since I took 2 benadryls to sedate me coughing my head off, I couldn't even finish it. I crashed around midnight. I will try to finish it tonight.

Kel has acquired some stuff to be given to the victims of Katrina. There is a drop off for items in Fort Smith. I plan to take the kids to church this morning and bring them home. I will then drop the items off.
