Sick again???

Natalie has been sick for over two weeks with the runny nose and cough. Just when I thought she was getting past it all....she has a fever. She was super sleepy and not her usual energetic self which was my first clue. Whenever she is like this I know something is up.

I spent last winter with her sick every other week it seemed. (Or maybe its b/c their symptoms last forever.) So here we go again, yet another winter of the sniffles. I shouldn't even be saying this since now I have attracted it into our lives- damn that law of attraction! (j/k)



On another note my sister Denise just called to inform us that although she just got her new apartment in NYC, she doesn't technically have a bedroom. In her 2 bedroom apartment (with 3 roommates counting her) her bedroom just happens to be a section of the living room. She did inform me that there will be a "curtain" up by the time we get there for Thanksgiving, dividing her room off.

Now Zack and I don't really care where we sleep since we love NYC and any sacrifice is worth it. However, I don't think Natalie will feel the same. When she goes to bed at 7 with a curtain as a barrier, she is bound to wonder what party she is missing out on as I am sure curtains aren't sound proof.

Well not to worry, since Denise has a closet in the corner of the living room that is big enough for Natalie to fit in and sleep on the floor. Her own private bed in a dark, scary closet. I am sure this will go over well with her the first night. (I can just imagine her thinking "um mom, you just shut me in a tiny dark room to sleep on the floor, are you planning on letting me out?)

No really, I think it will all work out (wink wink) and these kinds of situations are what make life so interesting!!! Bring it on. I am sure we will laugh about it for years.
