Saturday: play

Today was the second, and last, performance of 'Freaky Tiki'.  The students did a great job.  Joshua did a great job with the lights.

Among the many things that Joshua did, he made this poster.  (At one point in the play someone thought it was a window and another actor had to say it was a painting.)

There was a really nice blurb about Joshua as the only crew member too.

Friday: lip

Well, the lip is getting better.

Wednesday I went right back to sleep after everyone left for school/work.  I slept for most of the morning and ended up going to the dentist around noon.  I thought the swelling was slightly worse and there was a bit of leakage/crusting.  The dentist gave me some antibiotics.

Thursday the lip looked better but what I thought was fever-ish symptoms turned into cold symptoms.  I don't know if they were related or if I just happened to get a cold at the same time.  I got through teaching, which wasn't all that hard because it was a review.  I got home and crashed, electing to skip my two activities that had been planned for the evening.

Friday the lip is looking even better.  I'm feeling a little better but the cold symptoms are still present.

In other news, Giraffe had his birthday on Wednesday.  He got a Lego set of a giraffe having a birthday party and it has been played with more than I expected.

Tuesday morning I took a picture of Joshua in all black, which he did not appreciate.  So I let him take a picture of me.  You can see my lip starting to look weird, but I'm sitting in my hiding spot in the kitchen.  It's really comfortable because it's in the corner and people don't see me readily, but I can see everyone else easily.

Tuesday: lip

There was not much change in my lip today.  I did stop by the dentist, who seemed rather surprised by how my lip looks, but he thinks I may have accidentally bitten it.  I'm not convinced of this, but the main thing is that it doesn't seem like an allergic reaction and he expects it to go down within the next few days.

I made it through most of the day no problem, when I got home to make dinner I crashed. 

Monday: dentist

I had a routine filling done today.  I also have a canker sore near where they were doing the filling.  They numbed everything up, did the filling, and said it would be back to normal in about an hour.

I woke up from my nap, about two hours later, and noticed that my lip still felt really funny.  My cheek and gums felt ok, but my lip was not.  It turns out that it had swollen to about twice it's normal size.  I'm guessing it was mostly from canker sore plus instruments, but it was annoying.

Around 4pm it lessened in size - maybe to 1.5x.  Around 7pm it went down a bit more, but it hasn't gone down since then.  It isn't quite as annoying now, obviously, but it still does not feel right.

Here's hoping things are better tomorrow.

Sunday: warm weather

After a cool morning, it got very nice out.  Ben went out to eFoil

The boys and I biked to Lowes for some paint cards.  It was a short but lovely bike ride.

I tried to make a focaccia tonight.  It was more of a thick flat-bread.  It was edible, because warm bread is edible, but we probably won't finish it. 

Friday: under the sink

 I was cleaning yesterday and found another cat under the sink. Hahaha.

Thursday: excel

 One of the assignments in my class is to do something with a picture.  (There's more to the assignment to make it worthwhile.)  Anyway, it's fun to see what the students come up with.  Some put a lot of time into it, some put the bare minimum.  This one is actually a bit in the middle but the first one I've seen with a title.
