As for what I'm doing? Now I feel kind of guilty, but maybe it'll cheer MoeJoe up some - I'm waiting for my new ASUS T91MT convertible netbook to charge so I can play with it.
I made what I hope is the best compromise currently available for functionality and portability. We'll find out after a few days of use. |
We'll be waiting for a report.

We've done that scenario too. |

That backfires, because now I"m on edge wondering if he's really feeling okay or if he's fibbing.........

Actually, while we were there, one nurse had to go home with a fever, another was hacking up a lung.....and things have calmed down. Saw the pulmo guy yesterday, and he looked at the xrays and felt it was the beginning of pneumonia, so he added a prednisone medipak to the Leviquan antibiotic.......Probably, if I were out of the house more, I wouldn't worry so much. However, with all the illnesses at school, (those kids are like walking petri dishes), I've taken a break from volunteering. I just couldn't deal with possibly bringing something home and making him ill.

I've not slow-cooked (crock pot) the bolognese before. 5-7 hours should hopefully give it some of the depth it normally takes reheating the next day to give it.
Cheers,
