Ready for Preschool






Isaac has had his first days back at preschool this week. It has gone fairly well, despite the gooey ear (ie, ear infection). We are so excited that he will have his beloved Miss Shanna again this year coteaching with Miss Kristy who was his teacher last year. He has loved all of his teachers, but had a very special bond with Miss Shanna and always will :) Miss Shanna is in the picture above giving Isaac a big good morning hug. Isaac's only issue is taking a nap. He does fine while there, but just tells me he does not want to do it!

A fungus Among Us

It began about a week ago. A break out. It started on my chest, then behind my ears. Then began to creep down my arms. By this week I was well aware that what we had here was more then acne. I begin to search my brain. Had we changed detergants? NO. Soap? NO. Perfume? NO. I came up empty. By Saturday the spots had progressed so that I had scaly, slightly itchy blotches form the size of a dot, to the size of a nickel from my neck to my belly button, even on my back and my breasts. I have never in my life seen anything like this. Russell at one point was convinced I had chicken pox. By today there were even spots on my face, struggling to break to the surface. Russell's other big theory was that it was my anxiety, but that's a whole post in itself, so we won't even go there!!

Well, we went to the doctor today, because school starts soon, and I'm embarassed to be seen in public. I have a fungus, that I can't pronounce. The treatment SELSEN BLUE. That's write, dandruff shampoo. I have to let it soak for 10 minutes, until it dries and wash it off. Everyday for a week. I'll let you know how it goes, what an adventure :)
