GETTING BETTER SLOWLY

Things are starting to get a little better. I found a remedy for the coughing! HONEY!!!! I teaspoon of honey quiets Scott's cough for hours. I had read about this last year and totally forgot about it until this year when his cough just wouldn't quit. The cough med. was only working for about 1 1/2 at the most. We went to the ball game last night, and as soon as he started to get too warm, the coughing started again. I quickly left the game, ran across the road and bought a bottle of honey and grabbed a plastic spoon. Mission accomplished! Coughing stopped.
As for the pain from falling last week, the knee is somewhat better, although the elbow is still somewhat swollen and very tender. We went to PT yesterday, but they couldn't do too much with it being so sore. They did some ultrasound over it and we go back again next Wednesday.
Our son, Christopher left for New York for snow camp yesterday! We took subs out to him and 4 buddies to munch on the way. He texted in the afternoon and said it was snowing so hard it looked like a blizzard! They will be home Sunday evening. Can't wait to hear about this camp. He has been talking about it for weeks.
Hoping to check out the newly renovated library today! Erica and I are low on books and I have to take Scott to a couple appts. in Cleveland on Monday, so I need a good book or 2.
