Saturday and Sick

I haven't been sick since last winter and haven't been really really sick in a while--maybe when I was pregnant with AWB. In any case, I got AWB and HKB's colds, wasn't able to sleep a full night and basically have been a congested pile of uselessness for the entire work week. I can hardly plan anything and today I managed to get a few items ready for Halloween but that took most everything out of me. Exhausted physically and not having much energy since I am not eating much. The only upside is that I have managed to lose weight!

AWB
I am not sure if she is getting sick AGAIN because she was really tough this morning. HKB had committed to taking her to ballet every Saturday but she put up such a fight that he was defeated. I feel so bad for both of them. I had to take her, drop her off, go back home, get her fairy wings, my coffee and a change of clothes. She panicked like this one other time when I was home and did not take her to school. She fought Wong Auntie the whole way up Harlow and didn't stop until they got on the bus. She is being a really tough kid today. Obstinate and defiant on things that we want her to do.

Fall Update

Health Front
It is now October and I have been plugging away at the weight loss for a while. I think I peaked in July though I reached my 2nd 10% weight loss some time in late August. Almost 40 llbs!!!! But now more like 37ish pounds.

AWB
Is now going to Arlington's special ed program in the morning, all mornings and then to LTG 3 afternoons. Wong Auntie responsible for picking up and dropping off.

HKB
HKB is now department chair and is busy. We have had continuing issues with eating dinner together.
