New things in life

• New favorite pill: Augmentin. They look as if they were made for horses, but man do they work!
• New diagnosis: Possible asthma for Z. Poor pretty. She is going to be on Prelone for 5 days and we will see how she does.
• New feeling: Not stressed. I didn't know what a big weight I was carrying until it was lifted on Tuesday with Z's TPR.
• New goal: Bust the next big weight mark by April 1.
• New plan: Stay here for at least a year. We think.
• New surprise: Actually feeling grateful that it looks like we're not doing an interstate move this summer.
• New lease on old dream: Maybe a trip to Europe in a year. Therefore, a few ads on Watch Out for Mama to add to my penny jar.
• New movie we want to see: Horton Hears a Who. I'm always so relieved when my boys who think they're big - S (8) and A (6) - still want to do kid things.
• New love for old movie: Persuasion with Ciaran Hinds as Capt. Wentworth. Catch me as I faint ... (I know, he's almost the age of my dad. That is kind of creepy. I prefer to picture him as he appeared in 1995.)
• New project: Crocheted shopping bags. I'm gonna be greener, I am!
