The boys and I have spent all day in the house because of the fire on the mountain (Corner Canyon, just a few miles from our house). The air is so smoky I felt it best to keep the kids inside.
John called me this afternoon saying "Uh, is our house on fire?" From his office it looks like the smoke is coming from right where we live, it's that close! He was right to worry, I do have a history of almost burning the house down (see this post from my old blog).
Two friends of mine live up there and their families were just evacuated from their homes. I'm watching the news and checking my email constantly for news. I hope they get it under control soon!
I thought of you when I drove in that direction today. I had to go out to the point of the mountain to renew my drivers license. I hope all is well...I'll watch the new at 10:00 and see if things have calmed down. But yes, the smoke is hard on people. Little Alex's sinuses would be even worse. Oh, I forgot to bring it to the house yesterday, but I have a brand new tube of cream that I have used for my rashes. Lupus is the culprit, but it's dermatitis none the less. It really helps me so I thought you could try it on the boys. Compared to cortizone cream...it's the best. I'll pop it in my purse to bring next time. (Along with batteries). Again thanks for the wonderful dinner and conversation! Love Much
