This, That and The Other

One nice thing about Kansas is the beautiful sunsets. They've looked just like this the past few nights...
Apparently, the fuzzy stuff in the sky (not the defined clouds) is snow that's aloft and not reaching the ground. Very interesting.

Hannah's finally starting to feel better. I took her back to the doctor yesterday morning because she was just off. I couldn't put my finger on what it was, but I knew that it was something. After being told that I was overreacting by the nurse, the doctor told me that something was, indeed, going on. Her strep symptoms were clearing up nicely but her asthma was still a problem. Oh! And now she has croup. They gave her a nebulizer treatment there in the office and sent me home with a prescription for Orapred. I hate giving her that stuff but it made such an improvement to her demeanor. We still skipped gymnastics today and I think that the break's doing her good. I may let her do TKD this evening but we'll have to see.

The weather here's been very strange. We're supposed to be near 60 tomorrow and then a big snowstorm hits on Saturday. Weird. They're saying that travel on Sunday should be okay...I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Glad to hear that Hannah's starting to feel better. I'd play the TKD by ear to make sure she's OK.

The picture of the sunset is beautiful.

And, by the way, our weather is going to be the same as yours. We're also expecting snow on Saturday.

Poor Hannah. Barb, I think croup is contagious. I'd keep her home until she can't give it to someone else.

Her doctor told me that at this point, she shouldn't be all that contagious and that her only restrictions were what she could physically handle. I don't know if she'd be able to do TKD tonight anyway...she only seems to be active for about 10-15 minutes at a time. I don't know if she could handle a full hour of TKD.
