We leave tomorrow right after work, so basically everything has to be packed tonight. I’ve got all my stuff packed and Dad is on his way to having all his tools and so forth packed in the car. We are not bringing Sherlock (hope Audrey, Isaac, and Ethan aren’t too disappointed). That will leave more room in the car for tools, etc., plus free us up for more important activities.

I went to the doctor again about my hives and she ran a lot of blood tests and the only thing that is off so far is that my strep antibodies are high, so she has put me on an antibiotic for that. She thinks it is hanging around from the ear infection. I also got a prescription for prednisone, but I’m going to hold off taking that until I see if the antibiotic works. But at least I have it for the trip if the hives get as bad again as they were yesterday and this morning. Tonight they aren’t too bad, which is a welcome relief.

So, anyway, if you have anything you want us to know, you’ll have to call, because I don’t know when we will be checking the websites.
