Ella has this persistent rash that won’t go away! Poor girly! It was on her neck and under her chin and then creeped up her face till her cheeks are all red and sad. 🙁 Talking it through with some nurses and looking at stuff online, I think it may be Fifth Disease. Apparently the …

Going on the offensive
There seem to have been an alarming number of revolting incidences in my life recently. The coffee maker cleaning fiasco (see previous post) the kids tummy bugs, ugh, and the “dead thing” smell in Ella’s room. Well, the coffee maker has been replaced, the tummy bug is (I believe) deceased, but that smell… oh my. …
So… the coffee pot
I’m writing this post as a learn-from-my-experience lesson for my friends who may be coffee and tea drinkers who might use coffee and tea makers.

Ack!
So we got home in time for bed last night. 😉 Costco stuff everywhere, suitcases and clothing everywhere, dishes from the snack/dinner I gave the kids, and smoothie for Stu and I, all over the kitchen. But we were home!! 🙂 Dentist was behind us!! Yay! But this morning when I was surveying the carnage, …
