Sunday....

Today I woke up not feeling well. Sore throat, itchy eyes, runny nose, sore body. I'm thinking it's seasonal allergies. We've had a ton of rain and warm, humid weather. My temperature is 101. I just want to sleep all day.

This morning we visited my father again at the hospital. Little Sis and Daddy went this time too. My dad was happy to see us. The girls loved playing peek-a-boo with the curtains in his room and were a little loud. I think our visit wore him out. We stayed about an hour. He still can't really eat anything. Today they gave him some grape juice and chicken broth. He is hooked up to an iv of pain medicine and just pushes a button when he is feeling bad. He is still very, very pale. It's a weird feeling to see your father ill, especially my father because he's always been vibrant and the picture of perfect health. It makes you realize that he is getting older and to appreciate the time you get to spend with him.

On a less depressing note, I have a confession to make about why I haven't been posting very much recently. Yes, we have been a whirlwind of activity around here, but in addition to that, I have started watching Desperate Housewives for the first time and am hooked! I've been renting the dvds and am now in the middle of season two. I've never been one to enjoy soap operas, but for some reason I just love this show!
