Β His school sounds absolutely wonderful:)So happy his treatment went so well.I hope you are feeling better and just take some time for yourself today while he's out shooting:))))You are an amazingly strong mom,keep your chin up and know that you all are in my thoughts and prayers.
Thank you. I'd love to kick back and relax today but he begged me to tag along to the deer stand lol! I typically don't go because I think it's incredibly boring lol!! But he wants momma to go, so mommas going! I wouldn't miss it for the world. Plus we've got to put hay up in the barn and go get feed, rains on its way! I really hope he gets his buck, there's 3 big boys in the area we are going to. Incredibly generous of the guy to let my husband bring our boy out there to take one. You can bet I'll be taking lots of pics!
Β HOW EXCITING!!!WE GOT TWO DOES DOWN THIS AM!!!beautiful snow and so quiet and beautiful in the woods: ) I HOPE HE SHOOTS A BIG BUCK!!!HAVE A BLAST!
Thank you! Both our girls got a doe each a few weeks ago so my deep freeze is pretty full but there's always room for more. I sure hope he gets his!
So how did the hunt go?? |

| Unfortunately we didn't get to go. The rain came in with a vengeance right when we were supposed to leave and it didn't quit till well after midnight. We are going to go next weekend! With it being so cold and the pouring rain and wind we figured it wasn't a good idea to take him out in that and risk the chance of not seeing anything. |

| It seems like Sundays are going to be his "bad" day... his fever started coming on again last night, it's been several days since this has happened. We had to page the hospital for after hours and much to our surprise and total delight, our very own oncologist called us back in less than a minute. We told him what his fevers were running and he said as long as he's "normal" with everything else, which he was, we could stay home and give tylenol as needed. Such a huge relief for him and us, last thing I wanted to do was drag him to the er in the middle of the night where there is no doubt a ton of sick people in there, flu has hit our area something fierce and a pretty nasty stomach bug too. He's resting easy now with no fever. I went to wake his younger brother this morning and HE is running a fever now.. he's isolated in our bedroom for now. Needless to say I'm pretty stressed out at the moment. I hope everyone gets well and stays well. We've all started taking extra vitamins and I've been on a wildwoman cleaning, disinfecting rampage. No one comes in my home if they've been sick or around anyone sick and no one gets past the kitchen without washing hands and using the gigantic bottle of hand sanitizer. It's hard with the other 2 kids going to school and being exposed and then coming home.. but I'm doing the best I can and our dr said there's only so much I can do to prevent.. probably need to relax a little. :-( |

He had a great day. One of his teachers came over and spent some time with him and got him all set up on his laptop to do school work. He was gifted a very nice pair of cowboy boots from a good friend of mine and that's all he's been talking about! He's been really happy today and eating well! I love these days |

I think it's a good sign he's happy even after getting set up for school work!!! |

| Yikes! What a night I had... my youngest decided to run a fever again, so he went back into isolation, my bedroom! Tylenol helped break his fever, I came in to check him and he was drenched in sweat, but cool. So hopefully that'll be the last of it.. he's left with a cough. I was asleep, about midnight jacob came in my room crying, saying he was afraid he was going to throw up.. so I got up grabbed my pillow and blanket and went to his room.. he took a Zofran to help with nausea and I think it was about 230 when he finally fell asleep.. I did too and then my youngest came into Jakes room to wake me saying he had a nightmare, so I gathered my pillows and blankets and off to his room to help him go back to sleep... phew!!! Think I finally fell asleep again around 6 ish.. got about an hour of solid sleep before dogs barged in wanting to go outside and I could hear horses banging on their feed troughs ... sigh... gotta take my daughter to her foot dr here in a few hours and then take her Christmas shopping, then my husband should be home and he and I need to go finish up all our Christmas shopping! Made my coffee a little higher octane this morning |
