Hello there,

As you may have read in my last weblog entry, I have been trying to recover from a cold. It does seem that I have turned the corner, and am getting better rather than worse. Hooray for me!

All I need is fluids, rest, and time to recover. I hope that I will get better by the time Christmas Vacation starts next week! -It is really hard to be sick on my own dime.

I was afforded a little time to recover today. At 4:30 in the morning, my wife received a call from the school saying that classes will be starting two hours late. I was really happy to hear that news! I was able to get an extra hour-plus in bed before I had to get ready for work.

Of course the downside of all of this is that I will have to shovel my driveway when I get home from work tonight. That is the opposite of rest! Oh well, at least my driveway isn't THAT long.

After shoveling, Kazuko and I will visit Cub Foods. We need some groceries for the house. I also need to buy a few items for our happy happy Holiday party at Parker School on Thursday. I am sure that it will be a good time.

That's all for today!

Bye
