39, temps dropping all day. Woke up with a nasty headache. Moving slow.
Had birthday party for Kinzey yesterday. It was a nice time. Can't believe my youngest will be 6 on Thursday
DH is working getting his garage reorganized. So took some things to the farm house Friday. Need to get healthy so we can keep on.

@promiseacres , what did Miss Kinzey get for her BD? Lessons or bow? :pop
You should make up some elderberry syrup. I'm getting elderberries bushes next spring, but until I have my own I bought dried berries online. Super simple to make, half cup of dried berries to 2 cups water, heat until steaming (boiling destroys the vitamin C) and let it cook until reduced to one cup. I don't add any sweetener, but you could add honey to taste.
We rarely get anything that's going around, but this year we've fortified our usual routine with the elderberries. Everyone we know has come down with something, some with C19, others with seasonal crud, but we have been good so far.
Low gray clouds and snowing dandruff here. Not very inspiring.

@thistlebloom Kinzey got a Ken doll (now they have a "daddy" and don't have to pretend the dad is dead :p )and a scooter... it's my older daughter, Jocelyn I was debating on. She's my "pony" girl. Anyways it'll be a bow I guess as the special price on lessons at the "fancy" barn sold out. Hoping I can talk my teen friend to continue lessons at home. Or I'll buck up and keep working with them. I just am out of the "show" scene so many years. Main thing they need is time. I did start the pony on some ulcer medicine, see if that helps some of the quirks I worry about.
And yes I should look into the elderberries on a regular basis. I really suspect I have asthma or something that's more chronic as it gets me when the weather changes cold very often.

Your girls birthdays are close! My older sisters and mine are 3 days apart. We used to have dual BD parties. My mom was no dummy, lol.
Just planning ahead Kinzey is Dec 17 and Jocelyn is Jan 27. But Jocelyn's tends to be an after thought being after Christmas and not much OT for DH so I try to plan hers with the Christmas gift buying.
