Tomorrow is a national holiday. I haven't been able to get confirmation on the exact name, but as far as I can tell it is a holiday to pay respect to our elders. This is not limited to family. In honor of this holiday, I have been giving up my seat on the train for those that look old enough. They seem to be very thankful, I just hope I'm not insulting them in anyway. My jobs have been great, but I am under the weather and overworked. The first photo is from one of my 5th grade elementary classes. We had a great time that day, even though I was running a fever. The second photo is from the office I work in teaching adults. I've been sick for over two weeks now. I began to feel better about a week ago, when another version of the cold hit me. This time I have a sore throat, congestion and fever. I finally found some decent medicine, which is treating the symptoms very well. I only have two days off this month, so it will be a while before I get a good rest. Please pray for my mom, she's having knee surgery this Monday. I wish there was an easy way to go home when I wanted.

I LOVE the photo, I cannot remember the last time I saw so many VERY HAPPY little faces. Sorry to hear that you still aren't feeling well. When I first moved to Chicago I was sick every three weeks for the first for months . . . I'm sure whatever it is, you will soon build up immunity.

Sammie, you better giving up your seat to the elderly every day... Looks like the kids are having a blast with you (any fingers poked up your butt yet?!?)... they love to do that #*&$! Anyway, keep up the good work and stay healthy. Medicine is practiced a little different there...
