The kids are in their third week of school,  and the germs have begun to be passed around.  My daughter was home sick today.  A friend told me she and her husband were sick for 10 days, on and off.  I sure hope it doesn't last that long for my daughter as she cannot miss that much school!

We found a house we like today.  I don't know if we are still too early to work things out with our lease, but I'm going to talk with the realtor tomorrow about possibly making an offer.  As far as we can tell this house has no cats, mice or rabbits (all of which inhabit other homes we've liked.)  I don't relish the idea of moving again, but it must be done.  I am going to have to get rid of some things, a process which is very difficult for me.
