I can breathe again!... And Slugo, the Slug Dog

It seems that I have caught a summer cold.  Actually, it's not just me, all of the boys except Tom have caught it too.  For a couple of days I was totally miserable - I couldn't breathe and my head felt like it was going to explode.  At one point, I told Tom that I think it was the mosquitos in Yellowstone who decided to nibble on my ankles about 20 times.  I told him I thought they were trying to give me the West Nile Virus.  He told me not to be so dramatic and to go see the doctor.  So finally, I couldn't take it anymore and I went to the doc.  I knew I had a sinus infection - that seems to happen every time I catch a cold.  He put me on antibiotics and MucinexD.  I'm telling you, that MucinexD stuff works!  I had to sign for it at the pharmacy because I guess some people like to use it to make meth.  Probably within 30 minutes, my sinuses opened up and everything came out - I know, gross huh.  But I feel like I'm going to live again (more dramatics - hee hee).  I still sound terrible, but I'm feeling much better.

So enough about me...

This is a June picture.  Winston was playing in my flower bed. 
He likes to use the toad house, and he was using his little yellow bus. I asked what he was doing and he said, "This is my house. And this is my dog." And he pointed to a little slug that was next to his house.  I didn't get a picture of the slug dog.  I named him Slugo.  I love my son's imagination.
