and home for the day. He was supposed to have a 12 hour workshop today, but he can't go...coughing, fever, etc. Ds5 was up most of the night coughing again. He seems fine during the day, and then can't sleep at night. He's sleeping right now, though. I'm going to take the other kids to school and then I'll come home and clean up the kitchen and bathrooms, do laundry, and hopefully catch a nap. Nothing too interesting happening around here today.

We seem to have an abundance of money around here lately, and I think it has to do with our envelope system... I'm really liking knowing how much I have for the month and paying for everything in cash. It was nice doing some Christmas shopping, having a big bill, and when the clerk asked,"Credit card or debit?" I got to answer,"No. Cash only."! Love it!
