A New Zealand tradition... yum-yum! It's been years since Bryce has made one; perhaps he'll do a Christmas one.Today is a dark beautiful day. The sky has been so impressive, with massive winter clouds and deep colors. Ali and I delivered lasagnas and a care basket to a friend whose dad died this week... Kelly teaches first grade with me (started this year), and I've been so thankful for having her around-- I can be completely "myself" with her, and she makes me laugh and feel happy. So, I want to do whatever I can during this hard time. Anyhow, she wasn't home when we dropped the things off, but I'll see her tomorrow at the Viewing. I just keep thinking of her and her family, and I hope they are doing okay.
By the way, I am now Vice President of the Kalkaska Education Association, which is our district's branch of the teachers' union. Should be interesting!
I'd heard many good things about the Neti-Pot... my doctor even said that she's heard only really great things from her patients that have used it. So, after over a week of dealing with my scabby/mucus-hardened nose, I decided to try it! Rite-Aid carried this version, which is a modified Neti-Pot (the Neti-Pot is like a pourable tea-pot, whereas this is a squeezable option). Below is a photo of the Sinus Rinse in action (from google images-- i didn't have bryce take one of me, but I did make him come in and see the solution as it poured out the other nostril!)... Very exciting.
