Jan. 27th, 2018 01:07 pmI'm sitting in Tanya's dance class right now. Good time to catch up. Both girls got my cold this week. So both had runny noses. Thankfully this one is a much milder cold than others. She was well enough to go to dance though - no more runny nose or coughing this morning.
I'm feeling better but it is lingering a bit. On Tuesday night I woke up at 1:30am with a coughing fit, and water and cough drop were not helping. I was even contemplating taking cold medicine, looking up ingredients to make sure it was ok for nursing, but then I couldn't swallow the gel tablet. So I did some more Internet searching and ended up eating two spoons of honey. And that actually helped. So that was my nightly medicine this week.
Exciting news since my last post is Olivia started crawling. And I was right there in the living room next to her. She zeroed in on a remote control so I moved it back a bit. She kept starring and started moving toward it. I moved it a bit back. She moved forward some more. And then she got it and was very happy. I was just happy that I was there to see it. She doesn't crawl much, she is much lazier than Tanya was but she's definitely on the way to standing. She pulls herself up to her knees in the crib now.
Our electric tea kettle stopped working yesterday. I texted my Dad so he stopped by Costco to get me a new one. We had to boil water in a pot for the morning. Now I have a silver one instead of my pretty red one. Tea pot is a necessity in our house so I really just wanted a new one right away and didn't want to search for another red one.
This week was pretty normal otherwise. I finished reading 'Hallucinations' by Oliver Sacks (I will do a book post on it and on 1st Expanse book), and I'm now half way through 'Crucible of Gold', 7th Temeraire book. It's a lot of fun. I'm liking it more than the last book. An intense sea adventure for the characters.
I'm also trying to catch with all my shows for the week on the weekend. Because Victoria Season 2 episodes are really long, it's taking me a while watching in it in the week evenings. I'm going to try to watch my 3 shows though. (Supernatural, Flash and Supergirl)
