Snotty noses and new cars.

Hannah woke up this morning sounding snotty. Lou has been sick the whole week and now it seems Hannah has caught what he had. Doesn't matter that we've done our best not to let her get his germs. Seems it happens anyway. Poor girl! She seems like she feels fine. Her temp was 99.6 tonight. The doc on call says that she's okay unless it gets to 100.4. Then she recommends we take the baby to the pediatric ER in youngstown. It's about 50 minutes from us. Tonight I gave her a soothing warm bath and then her bottle. She's asleep now. I feel so bad because sometimes she gags. I doubt I'll sleep at all tonight for worry. Hopefully the cool mist vaporizer will help. I'm feeling a little puny myself. Downed some vitamin C, a Zyrtec and finished off a grapefruit for my dessert. *sigh* Figures....I'm supposed to go to VA this coming thursday....

...in other news, the in-laws have decided it's time to buy a "new to us" car....(they never buy "new") because of rising gas prices. Doesn't matter that Lou and I have been kind of looking for one for ourselves. So now it's truely the family car. I guess I'll have to ask for permission now to borrow the car....ugh....
anyway it's a 2005 chevy malibu. They are putting new tires on the back so I don't think we actually get it until monday. I think I will be the first to really test drive it as I'll probably be taking it to VA. My durango is only good for 30 minutes one way and then it needs a break. Someday it might actually get fixed.
