Today is laundry day and straighten up this house day.    Dave &amp; Kathy should be home by noon tomorrow and I&#39;d never let them walk into a mess here so today I&#39;ll concentrate on doing all the things I neglected to do all week and wondering why I told Kathy not to have the cleaning lady come on Wednesday.   Silly me&#33;  Feeling a little less stuffy today so perhaps I caught this bug right away.   I hope so.<br /><br />Colin is off on a nature hike with school today.   I think.    Instructions came home yesterday about bug spray, hats, long sleeve shirts, etc. and the first paragraph read &quot;the class will be going on a nature hike RAIN OR SHINE.    The last paragraph states:   Rain date for hike is October 24th.  hehe<br /><br />I also have lost interest in DWTS this year for some reason although I did watch a bit with Paige last night.     We&#39;ll watch the rest of it this morning .<br /><br />Kevin &amp; Cheryl - boy it seems early to be having your first s*** but it seems you are used to it.     Please drive carefully.  Cheryl - good luck with the baking with Scotty this afternoon.<br /><br />Rose - YEAH for your son.    I hope he enjoys the WS with his lucky tickets.    Wll he be taking his Mom or Dad along?  <br /><br />Steve - glad your Dad&#39;s check-up went OK except for the BP.   That sure is low.   Hope he is doing better today.<br /><br />Ed - Enjoy your LV sunshine.   At least you don&#39;t have to shovel that.    I am so dreading winter.  Any further word on when Roe will be heading back to Ca?<br /><br />Joey - I guess a big pot of homemade soup is the ultimate comfort food for us also.    I started a pot of turkey soup before we headed up to Ct. and froze the stock when I ran out of time.   Guess I will finish it as soon as I get home.    <br /><br />Falina - Deb - Shaunna - Jenn - hope everyone is doing better today.    Time to start getting the kids up so I&#39;ll be back in a little while.   <br /><br />Make today special
