NOmonia!


Today was pretty interesting.  I had to drop my car off at the middle school and take my mom's to the elementary school to drop of my sister, and to the high school for me.   Mom put gas in my car when she was finished with her morning bus route and she switched our cars back while I was in school.


In first period, Mrs. Humphrey gave me a whole box of beads and a box of string for Awareness Beads.  She ordered a bracelet that I gave her yesterday.  It was really sweet of her to get supplies for me.  She's a really sweet lady and definitely one of the people I'll miss next year.

Beth and I were doing some Latin this morning, but then I asked her to pray for Lindsey (www.caringbridge.org/visit/lindseysteltenpohl), and she asked me about DIPG. 

I didn't really know how to explain it, so I googled it and came across www.reflectionsofgrace.org.

We read all about DIPG, and an amazing little girl named Grace.  I e-mailed her parents for permission to use her name for Awareness Beads.   I encourage you to read her story.  It's very touching.



I can't really say much about homeroom because we seniors in chorus are working on a surprise and some of the people that the surprise is for might read this.



In second period, we looked for and tried on costumes for Wicked.  I'm going to be a munchkin, and you can sure believe there will pictures of that!



I got home around 12 and napped and had lunch and then I picked Savannah up early from school to take her to the doctor.  She's had a cough for what feels like months now, but hasn't really had any other symptoms.  We've gone through two bottles of cough syrup with no change, so it was time for a doctor visit.


We got there and the doctor said he couldn't find a thing wrong except some noise in the left side of her chest, and since she's had pneumonia, he sent us to get a chest x-ray.

Savannah was scared.  She didn't want to have an x-ray.  She didn't even want to go the doctor.  She just wanted to go home.  And she certainly didn't want to have pneumonia again.

She got two pictures taken of her chest, and they were normal.  Her doctor told us just to watch for a fever and if she gets one to give her some Tylenol and call him next week if she's not any better.

We thanked the Lord above and came home.


We babysat Ashlynn for a little while because Tabetha had to work, and then I took a nap for a little over an hour.  When I woke up I watched the Nationwide race at Darlington, which Kyle Busch won, ew.  Then I had dinner with my family and now here I am!

We're going to the spring carnival at the elementary school tomorrow..  That should be fun.  :)



Savannah waiting in the x-ray room.  Not a happy kid.

Savannah in the waiting room waiting for x-ray results and eating a sucker the x-ray lady gave her.  Doesn't take much to get her smiling again!





Until my next post,
