Halloween and Flu

Halloween was fun, although very rainy. We went to a neighbor's haunted house - they had the coolest decorations and spooky food I've ever seen...


...then we went to the Carnival at the church where the kids go to preschool...



...and then we went trick-or-treating.


(It is such a nice age...they have no idea that trick-or-treating might include more than going to five houses. Blissfully unaware.)

I had no idea it was the end of daylight savings, but I noticed the clock difference from the cable box right away. That's how out of it I've been, and how much I rely on my computer to tell me what's going on in the world.

Sunday was a cold, dreary day and we noticed Sam was coughing and generally not his perky self. Then this morning, it was obvious he had a fever...102.8. Still coughing, runny nose, stomach hurts. So he is home from school today and going to the doctor this afternoon. A lot of kids at school have been sick and they said they are treating everyone for H1N1 just to be safe. We'll see what the doctor says. I hope he gets better soon because he has a big birthday coming up this Saturday...he is turning 5.

I am posting from my computer but I still haven't gotten everything loaded again, including my camera software. Off to go do that now, and then I'll add the pictures above.

Oh! and I will have new beads, promise...I hope to add 3 new focals to Etsy today, and beads for Ebay coming soon. I just ran out of O2 so I have to get more before I can finish the set I started.
