Sickness, Home Offers and Rain!

 It's been a whirlwind!  Eric flew to Ft. Lauderdale, FL on a red-eye Tuesday night.  I was sick from Tuesday - Friday with a horrible cold.  Chills, fever, night sweats, coughing, sore throat, stuffed up nose, and sinuses.  I was a hot mess.

On Wednesday, Ft. Lauderdale got hit with 25 inches of rain!  Flooding everywhere.  Airports, schools, and more are all closed.  Eric's work event was Thursday - not great timing for sure!  They still had a great turnout though despite the mess.

He had to fly from Ft. Lauderdale to Dallas, TX for the next event on Friday.  He was delayed several times, had to reschedule his flights, and finally got there late that evening.  We also found out that we had received an offer on our Reno home and we only had until 10am Saturday morning to reply.  So tired as we were, we hashed that out.  We counter-offered by Saturday morning and by that afternoon, they had accepted our counteroffer.  

Saturday, the girls and I all had a girl's day out in Portland.  I will share that later.

Enough for tonight. :)  Good night.

Happy 45th Birthday, Eric!

  Happy birthday to my husband, Eric!   He turns 45 today.  I am surprising him with tickets to a Miami Dolphins game in Miami.  I got him tickets one other time years ago when we lived in Reno.  We drove to Oakland to see the Dolphins play the Raiders.  I think this will be a great memory for him and a home game too! Happy birthday, babe!

Recipe: Chicken Parmesan

  Chicken Parmesan This is a delicious recipe from Magnolia Table: Volume 2. 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts  1/4 tsp. kosher salt 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 2 large eggs 1 tsp. garlic salt 1 sleeve (30-40) buttery crackers, crushed 4 oz.
