Life Continues

Ben could be home on Saturday. It's not official, I think, but since he put the idea in my head I'm just going to go with it for now. It still boggles my mind that we make 15-yr-old's have permits for at least 6 months, and these guys are flying a plane solo after a few weeks! He said it went pretty well despite having some major changes mid-flight. 5 other planes showed up out of nowhere on his radar screen, all appearing to be right on him.  He also had a tailwind while he was trying to land the plane. Other than that, everything went smoothly. 

James and I just had the Weekend From Heck. We got wildly ill. I had to call my RS Pres. for help because I could hardly get out of bed to take care of James. It was so good to have my new friend take care of James so I could rest. James was sick too, but he never shows any decrease in energy. I was lucky at could rest during the day, because James had some really rough nights. I'm pretty sure he didn't sleep more than 30 minutes at a time. None of the medicine I gave him seemed to clear his nose and throat. And even the humidifier running all night couldn't add enough moisture in the air to help him. But we're both doing much better, still a little stuffy, but at least we're sleeping all night.

That's pretty much everything that's going on. Today James and I cleaned my house in case Ben really is coming home soon. I've been neglecting it while he's been gone.
