Finally!

David is fever-free! His temp was normal when I took it yesterday morning! Yippee! He would have gone to school today except that there wasn't school due to parent/teacher conferences. So he and Nathaniel got to go play at a friend's house while I got my hair cut & colored. I had the appt originally for last Friday, but had to change it since David was sick, and when I rescheduled it, I'd forgotten that the kids didn't have school. My friend Lisa, who has 4 kids, a boy who is David's age & her youngest daughter is Nathaniel's age, agreed to watch them for me. The boys had a great time with Daniel and Isabella.

We had our FPU class last night instead of Monday night because of the Monday night football game, Packers vs. Vikings. Its a big game since the teams are huge rivals & it was made even bigger this year since Brett Farve is playing for the Vikings. We usually root for the Packers, but wanted to see Brett Farve beat his old team. And beat them he did! Anyway, class was good. We watched the "Dumping Debt" DVD, which is my favorite out of all 13 of the lessons.

Tonight is the 2nd episode of Stargate: Universe. Well, technically, its the 3rd episode, since the premiere last week was 2 hours. But the 2nd week. I'm looking forward to it. Its also the season premiere of season 2 for Sanctuary. Both are on SyFy, back to back, starting at 8pm CST.

Stargate: Universe & A Still SIckly Boy

Richard and I watched the premier of Stargate: Universe last night. I have been looking forward to this for, well, since the series finale of Stargate: Atlantis. I'm going to keep this spoiler free for those who haven't seen it yet. (Its on Hulu.com if you want to watch it and you don't have cable/Dish/DirecTV with SyFy) I really enjoyed it. My favorite character so far is Eli Wallace (David Blue). Lou Diamond Phillips is in as well, but his part is smaller, you could almost call his Col. Telford a secondary character. The biggest disappointment to me was the sex scene towards the beginning of the show. Totally unnecessary. But other than that, I really liked it. It was a 2 hour premiere ("Air parts I & II") with a cliff-hanger ending that will be resolved in next week's episode "Air III". That's all I'll say about it for now.

David is still not feeling great, although he's better today than he was yesterday. His fever is still high, 101.1 as of 7:00 pm, so not as bad as yesterday. I'm hoping his fever will break tonight so he can be fever free tomorrow and go back to school on Monday.
