The Past: November 23, 2003

While Andrew was gone on his youth trip to Gatlinburg this weekend, Kevin decorated the front of the house. It looks beautiful! I like lots of colored lights and wreaths and that’s exactly what we have. There are so many plain white lights on other houses that it’s nice to have and to see something different. This weekend was perfect for decorating outside. It got to almost 70 degrees!

Once again, Ashley has strep throat. She just finished taking her antibiotic on Tuesday and now she’s taking a new one. The doctor said that she might catch it again and again. Everywhere I go someone is coughing or snorting snot. It’s a wonder that anyone is well. I know that it’s costing us a fortune! We spent $20 on the co-pay and another $30 for this medicine (about the same amount as ten days ago when she was first sick). If we continue to do this over and over again, we’re going to be in deep trouble.
