you guessed it, another snow day

We all got up and got dressed this morning, but only to go to the doctor. Not exactly what I planned for getting out of the house. Hannah woke up complaining of her throat hurting. She had a temp of 100.5 so I called the doctor. I was a little nervous about getting out of our driveway, but we made it. Traffic on Old Hickory was AWFUL!!!!!! for no reason. It took us 45 minutes to get to the doctor when it should have taken 20. The doctor said her lymph nodes were pretty swollen and her throat was very red. She did a strep test and the rapid came back negative, but she is sending it off. We will know by Friday if she has strep. She said to get plenty of rest and drink plenty of liquids. She is a good drinker so that should not be a problem. I told her she had to take a nap today and she said OK, so I know she does not feel great. She is doing good about keeping her hands washed so we do not share too many germs. She said she feels better since her nap. She napped longer than Hunter. We are very happy to have Derrick home. It seems like he has been gone for a month. I found the charger for the camera battery so tomorrow I will take pictures to post. We are out of school again tomorrow. The school website says that they hope we will return on Friday if they can get the buses to safe locations. We shall see, it is really cold outside. Hope you all are staying warm.

Hope Hannah feels better soon. Enjoy your snow day - Jacqulin has to go to school tomorrow and is very sad. We will all be ready for Spring.

Hope today finds Hannah feeling better and that none of the rest of you get it. We will send up lots for prayers for a speedy recovery.

Glad Derrick is home safe and sound. Enjoy your day, maybe a Sonic trip is in order for an outing!
Love you guys.

PS - I really love the new border!
