Paul found out yesterday that our email is not working, and that none of the emails we've sent over the last month have actually been sent.
-- Well, at least I know why nobody has been replying to me.

Standing in the need of Prayer
I'm still not feeling great so this is going to be a rambled and disjointed list.
-Paul's mom is battling some health concerns. She is a fairly private person so I am guessing she would rather I not share specifics, but she could certainly use your prayers. We have already seen God working a blessing, in that she her job was supposed to end this Friday, but the layoff has been temporarily rescinded so that she can keep her insurance for the time being.
-Anne's grandpa passed away this weekend. He was 88 and it was not totally unexpected. Still the family is grieving. It will be a large adjustment for Anne's grandma as they had been married 68 years.
-We are all still fighting the flu here. I was in the ER Monday morning, with severe asthma symptoms. It's definitely bronchitis, possibly pneumonia, but without a chest x-ray it's impossible to know. Paul has not been in to work this week. He is doing a bit better today. But his fever yesterday was around 103 and probably higher at other times (we seem to have lost the thermometer --Abby thinks it is under the refrigerator). All of the children are still sick to varying degrees. We seem to get better and then worse again.
-I am sick of being sick. It's been two weeks now.
-Happy Birthday to all of the Birthdays I have missed or will miss. You know who you are. We even have a present for Manda (THE BIG 30) that will hopefully be delivered sometime before Christmas.
-Thanks to all the veterans and active military. We appreciate all your sacrifices.

Anna Catharine Ciarrocchi
Leanne and Dave welcomed Anna Catharine Ciarrocchi this morning at 5:19 AM. There were some complications, but mom and baby are both doing well now. The email we received this morning did not contain weight and length of the baby, but I will post that info when I know more.

Flu
Wednesday morning the children were acting more tired and edgy than usual. Sam and Isaac both had a hard time keeping up in gymnastics. Wednesday afternoon the kids all started not feeling well, but they didn't really seem sick. A couple of neighbor girls stopped by to use the computer, they let me know that a couple of the neighbors who had come over to play a few days before had been diagnosed with H1N1.
By Thursday afternoon I was running a fever (which I've kept under control, but has not gone away since). The children, except Isaac who has asthma, are pretty much well. Isaac has a wheezy cough still. I will call the doctor's office in the morning. It is really hard to get him to take the breathing treatments that he really needs.
I am feeling a good deal better than I was, but am still sick. Paul started feeling yucky yesterday. He isn't really sick yet, so I am hopeful he won't get very ill.
We've been drinking lots of orange juice and eating lots of chicken soup.
I am just thankful it did not hit us any worse.
So that's us anyway.
