I got out of the house today! By myself! Its been a LOOOOOONG couple weeks and I did get out once or twice just to do quick shopping but not much else. Today Grandma has been in town so I hightailed it out to browse an arts & crafts sale (and to say hi to the lovely Lojina and her awesome art!) and then hit The Junction for a little browsing. It was nice to wander around have time too just LOOK at stuff, and contemplate various options, because usually I a) don't even go into stores that are not grocery or household supply related and b) am always trying to get us in and out as quickly as possible to avoid a disaster...
After shopping I picked up Chinese food for dinner (highly recommend the honey walnut prawns, chow fun noodles, and 7 flavor pork! Yum yum!!!!) which was received very well by all 3 adults but generally refused by all 3 kids. Ah well, you win some you lose some....

As for a health update -- I think we are mostly over The Dreaded Plague. The girls are sleeping pretty well again, and just a little bit of lingering coughs and runny noses. I hope they depart soon! We are Very Sad to be missing a big family gathering tomorrow (and a bday party today!), but could not risk exposing folks when we may still be contagious. We are not even positive it was H1N1, but its pretty likely....
