So Paige's itchy saga continues. We spoke to the doctor yet again and he admitted that he's not sure what's causing the rash to continue. So he recommended we visit a dermatologist. Her appointment is Wednesday.

I was introduced to the entire company, Core Creative, on the 24th as a regular freelancer, coming in to work there 3 days/week indefinitely. Nice to have that consistency.

After months of having paint chips taped to our bedroom wall, Jeff and I finally got to the paint store and had them mix up our chosen color. I did all the taping, painting around the trim and vacuuming along all the corner and creases. The drapes came down and went to the dry cleaners. Jeff's just finishing up the ceiling so hopefully we can move the furniture back next weekend.

Our cars have decided to act up lately. Bryn called us Friday 24th on her way home from a track meet to tell us a tire on the van blew out. And she was driving! Luckily she only had 2 blocks to her parking lot. Jeff drove out the next day, brought the van back here to the local garage for repairs (née tire and suspension). This past Saturday Jeff replaced the sway bars on the truck only to discover the exhaust pipe dangling. Sve that for next weekend!

My mom, dad, sister Kristin and her husband Carlo went to the Brewers game last Friday night. Weather conditions didn't allow us to tailgate, but I was more than happy to have a hot dog in the stadium!

And Saturday, we did a little shopping and went out to check out Bryn's new place now that the previous renters are out. After that we visited Aunt Marlys in her new residence in Waukesha. Very nice facility and the staff was very kind. Uncle Dave and his daughter Debbie (my cousin) met us for dinner in Elm Grove for some much needed support and conversation.

Abby made a Skype date with us to announce that she and Aaron are officially dating. We haven't had a chance to meet him yet, but hopefully will soon as Abby will be home after UWL's graduation until August.

We're busy making plans to get Bryn down to Texas to visit her best friend, Natalie, as that was what Bryn asked for for Christmas.
