The rest came from a used bookstore shopping spree!

Currently:


Reading: Miss Moriarty, I Presume by Sherry Thomas and A Turn For The Bad by Sheila Connolly

Listening:  The Sun Sister by Lucinda Riley


Steroids are rough!  Will didn't get much sleep for the week and the steroids caused some side effects that weren't fun.  Thankfully the side effects are wearing off and he was feeling well enough to go out to dinner and make silly faces when he got tired of me taking pictures of him.  It's amazing how much of a difference proper nutrition and getting actual calories makes.  

I had a migraine free week which was really nice and I've been feeling a bit more organized.  We are finally getting the school room setup.  We had started turning a guest room into a school room right before he was diagnosed but of course that took a major backseat.  But now that he's feeling better we are getting back focused on home schooling.  

Have a great week and happy reading!

  14. Glad he's feeling a bit better and you were able to go out to dinner. It's good you haven't had migraines either. They can be so difficult to live with.

    Once Upon a Wardrobe looks good-is it Narnia related?
