Holidays, hot spots, hiders, oh my.

We're leaving for Kansas in two weeks and all of my Christmas decorations are sitting on the dining room table, patiently waiting for me to get around to decking the halls. I will do it. I will. Maybe tomorrow.

Olive has what the vet thinks might be a hot spot on her neck. She's now on antibiotics and a steroid treatment, which make her have to pee all the time. Like, at 3 AM. So between Olive and Baby B and my ever expanding and aching hips, I'm lucky to get 2 uninterrupted hours of sleep at a time these days. I'm actually looking forward to boarding the beasts while we're in Kansas because I'll get to sleep past their usual 6 AM wakeup calls.

I bought my second baby-related thing today... I suppose the rate of baby-related shopping should probably increase at some point but I've been taking it easy what with Christmas and my school fees due and all that jazz. But today I found out that a breastfeeding privacy cover was FREE and all I'd have to pay was shipping and handling, so I typed in my 'christmas' promo code over at Udder Covers and shazam, the order is done.

Oh, and in school-related news... tomorrow night brings the celebratory dinner for surviving another semester. I'm super excited to eat what I hear is the world's best pita at Sitti in Raleigh. Not sure if they have my beloved spinach pies, but I'm sure whatever I get will be good. Also, if you're interested in learning more about the reading fluency intervention I've been doing here and there, or if you know an educator who might be interested, the HELPs website is now live and has all the information you need for this evidence-based, excellent intervention developed by a faculty member in my program.
