Can’t think of anything to write about tonight. I still have a horrible cold / upper respiratory infection that seems to be a “super cold.” I have been having lots of irrational thoughts about never leaving the house again and wearing a face mask to check the mail. Definitely the virus “talking.” Julie thinks I need to wash my hands more. 
The kids had microwaved hot dogs with ketchup for dinner. Kind of proves that I feel terrible.
Both Julie and London brought home “manilla turkeys” to decorate and I doubt that our dining room carpet will ever recover from all of the glitter it soaked up tonight. Julie’s turkey is so thick with glitter that I think it needs a custom piece of plywood just to support the weight.
Rachel had a good entrance and exit to school today. We brought Holly (our dog) to school with us and that most certainly lifted her mood and made the transition easier. I think I better bake some cookies for them tomorrow. You can never have a mom who bakes too many cookies, right?
TeamRachel aka mrskatvon is both a website to gain public awareness of Juvenile Batten Disease (which affects my oldest daughter) as well as a journal to remember the events in our lives.
Rachel was diagnosed with Batten Disease in July 2009 and while we knew something was "not right" we had no idea that such a nightmarish disease existed. There are dozens of nasty, orphan disease which affect people both very young and old.
Aside from dealing with the changes of Batten Disease in my daughter, Rachel, I have tasked myself with making life memorable for all of my children to make sure that (at least) 3 of them grow up to be as well adjusted and happy as possible.
Feel better soon…I need to go out!!!
UGGH Hope you feel better. I bet the Turkeys are beautiful.
Glad it was a good day for Rachel.
No you can never bake enough cookies. I guess I should get on that, huh?
