Sigh, I wanted to make a ride on the Access Van for my mom and I to go to the store tomorrow but the person at dispatch said that tomorrow as supposed to be worse then today. We have to go up on Sat regardless because it's the Toy Drive pickup. I hate this weather!

Vashon Island High School: December 18, 2008 Early Dismissal at 12:30 p.m. Emergency Bus Routes - and probably won't have school tomorrow as well I bet!

It's coming down hard out there.

Isn't that the truth? The snow let up for a few hours but it's back again. I hear rumors of a 30 car pile up on 509 (down the hill coming out of Burien). Can't sit and watch the TV, my chairs in the living room are too low for me and this bum knee. Oh well, housebound and back to Lords of the White Castle.

Well they decided to close school tomorrow and since Harm's Christmas Break starts Monday, she doesn't have any school for the rest of the year.

try Zicam, not the syrp, it works almost every time the kids or Ronnie gets sick and I use it or visa versa. The syrup is nasty, but the pills or swabs are not horrible.

Sigh, we were supposed to go to get Harm's stuff from the Toy Drive and get some food but our Access Van got stuck in the snow and originally they said it'd take another hour before our pickup and then they just called again saying it would take even longer, and since the bad weather is coming in a few hours or so, I decided to cancel and try again Monday. Luckily if the van can't get us up on Monday our neighbour said she'd take me.

We are all on the Echinacea! As soon as he went down with it we hit the herbs! Washed down with fresh OJ, broccoli for dinner, and as much other healthy eating we can do!

Today he was really poorly. We went out to do last shopping, but had to call it off as he got paler. He came home and went to bed, sleeping on and off for most of the afternoon. However, he got up just before dinner looking the best he has looked for the past couple of days! I think we may have turned the corner!
