Hey, all! I hope you had a great week! Mine is…better. Not great but… Last weekend, I felt like I got run over by a semi-truck. I’m MUCH better than that now (thank God!), but it was strep throat and, for me at least, it can take a couple weeks to get back to normal. A cough started about the time the antibiotics kicked in and that’s my biggest issue except still being tired. I did get to move forward some on my next book which is always fabulous!!!! And hey – four kids, no cavities! That’s always a win! We did go to my brother-in-law’s house today. The smoke from the fire for s’mores didn’t help the cough, but I DID finally get to meet my ADORABLE great-nephew! I shouldn’t be contagious, but because of the lingering cough I did still keep my distance. Maybe next time I can cuddle him!
What about you? Anything exciting?
