Ailments Avoided, Colds Caught

It's been a good while since the last update. We really haven't been busy. Truthfully, I don't know what has happened to the last few weeks. Lots of settling still going on for us, and lots of days where we still wind up exhausted.

Our whole household officially has a cold now. Anna was the last line of defense, but she caved today. Likely, I gave it to Wyatt and Wyatt to Anna. But, we're fighting it the best we can with herbal teas, Vic's Vaporizers and lots of cold-eezes.

I can't seem to stay warm. My extremities are continually cold. I don't know how we are going to make it through the winter. In fact, we just got a heating bill for $150. This was astounding! Our biggest heating bill in Pasadena was something like $35. Anyhow, we've dropped the temperature in our house to keep us out of the red, but this is only going to keep my in slippers and scarfs all winter.

We do have something to be thankful for: Wyatt, who happened to swallow one of Anna's ear-rings, managed to avoid any serious harm by passing the ear-ring through his entire digestive system. Anna found it after one of his explosive poos, ending a mystery of where her ear-ring disappeared to. This single event was strangely funning and strangely distressing. How close we came to surgery we will never know!?
