Another Week

Hi! What a week! Whew!!!!!! We have made it through our busy "birthday" season at our home. Rob is 41, Robert now 18, and the "Babs-inator" is 17. ;) Poor Barbara who had to take care of all of us on her own birthday as we were too sick to cook or do much at all.

The four of us who were sick with the flu and other flu-related/caused illnesses are in various stages of wellness and getting better. The boys have bounced back very quickly, and Rob and I are feeling better than we did, though not good yet. Thank God, the worst of that is over though! Robert informed me that we are taking longer to get well versus he & Matthew because we are "old & decrepit." Twerp!!!!!!!!!! :)

It's Friday night- the kids are at their Vietnamese church for the weekly youth service. I have balanced my checkbook and done some school work. Time for me to stretch back here, read, and start working on my portfolio I have to do. For anyone who is reading and didn't hear from Momma's "BIG MOUTH" :)-just kidding Momma- I was voted teacher of the year at my school this past week. So I have a lot of writing to do now for the county level "competition."

Oh, I should tell you we tried to pull a mean trick on Matthew tonight, but he didn't fall for it. We got the bill for our ER visit and it's about $600! YIKES!!!!!!!! We also figured that our flu came from sitting in the ER for so long with all those sick people, so we can "blame" him for the bill I'll be getting for all the tests & x-rays they did on me this week... So, Rob told Matthew that he would not be getting birthday or Christmas gifts for the rest of high school to pay for that bill. :) We're ornery, I know, but that's how we have fun.

Night!
Rebekah :)
