I’ve been meaning to blog more and I wanted to blog about last weekend for Kiddo, but I got the flu and was down for most of last week.  Then it was Thanksgiving and the girls had Friday off, so that was busy and Kiddo also got a bit of a cold and so she had the sniffles and was just feeling down for a few days.  Add that all together and it equals not a lot of time to sit and catch up.
