Yes, that's exactly how he put it--"crackles." I'm still not seeing much improvement. If it doesn't change by Monday, I'll go back to the doctor. I've never been laid up for so long. I feel like I'm in isolation. Everyone's staying away so they won't get sick--not that I have energy to talk to anyone anyway cuz when I talk, I start coughing. Avi's been sleeping in a separate room, so he won't catch it. That's hard for both of us. Other than that, rain,rain, rain.....

I've been sick the last 10 days with a really annoying cough. Usually when I have a cold, I go on doing my usual things and don't have to lie in bed or anything, but this one is really wiping me out. First the doctor said it's a virus, but then when I went again (cuz it didn't seem to be improving and was giving me sharp pains in my head every time I coughed), he said he hears the beginning of pneumonia in my lungs. So now I'm on an antibiotic. This better work cuz it's really driving me crazy. Sorry to be complaining....

Zumba is an areobic dance class. It is generally a hour class. High energy.

It has been cold here in VT, too.....though the past few days have been in the 20s with sunshine.
There was actually a rainbow out yesterday...without the rain...not quite sure was going on in the atmosphere but it was beautiful.

School is wild and crazy....but these little bodies make me laugh ...they come out with the funniest things....just the way one little girl says my name...over and over and over.....Mrs. Stern, Mrs. Stern, Mrs. Stern......in a high squeaky voice. I wear different colored contacts during the week....one day, blue...one day, green. Now the kids will notice what color I am wearing and what color I had the day before...they even think they control the color I will wear the next day...We are into making Valentines...and Valentine holders....and...more Valentines. My favorite holiday!
I hope all is well with everyone....join us on facebook, too!

Cold cold days here in ME. No snow but very very cold.....................

What is Zumba?!

Good morning one and all. It's a chilling 17 here this a.m. I have massage therapy at 8:30 and then work at 10:45. What an odd start time. Zumba tonight at 6. a busy day.
Dave is heading up to P.I. to work for most of the week. So I'm more or less on my own this week. Sleep will be challenging.
Honestly I still have Christmas decorations to put away. They're down in the storage area but just left there not put away properly so I have a good sized project there to take care of and hopefully will get around to it.

Yes, I'm venturing out to Facebook a little more, but still playing it safe!
