Phase 2 and Fevers

So yesterday we got a little further on the kitchen. The "industrial blue/grey" is actually the tinted primer we have for the walls and brown cupboards. So walls first. The red should be going on today. We do have a bit more work to get the rest of the adhesive off where the back splash was. It feels so nice to have that down...a step in the right direction!

We were slowed down a little bit by a fever. We were out to supper and Maya started to feel really hot; I mean really hot. The day before (Wednesday) she crashed on the climber at school and really did a number on her top gumline. We didn't want to risk the fever being a sign of infection from that wound so off we went to the after-hours clinic. They took her temp and it was 104.9. So they dosed her with some Tylenol and gave us a prescription for penicillin just in case it was her mouth and he couldn't see it yet. She was so sad and shaky but still very coherent and lucid. She was on fire, it was kind of freaky touching her and knowing that it is ok that she feels like the top of a stove.

She is better today. She has started sneezing out
gigantic boogers...seriously gigantic. So I think we are on the mend and headed for a good old-fashioned cold. Definitely a busy day!
