It's a beautiful sunny day here in our little part of Oklahoma, and 50*.  That's 5--0.  In January!  Guess we aren't going to have a winter this year.

Ally has strep again.  Seems as though with the gulp of water to wash down the last antibiotic, it all returned again.  Fever, sore throat, body aches, cough.  It isn't the flu.  The doctor did a flu test.  negative.  Positive for strep, though.  Guess she will miss another day of school.  *sigh*

Seems that I have fallen in love with cardinals lately.  I seem to be collecting pictures of them lately.

I have discovered another author that I adore.  I'm loving Nancy Turner books!  She writes in diary form, and I like that.  The main character in the series I'm reading now lives in the late 1800's into the 1900's.  In the past year I've discovered Karen White (writes mainly about Charleston, SoCarolina); Sandra Dallas; and now Nancy Turner.  I think I like their work because they all seem to have a sameness in their writing style.
