Eh??? I remember being a little one and doing the whole "cannot take pills" thing.. anyway antibiotics were constant for me, back then they had this bubblegum candy flavor that I can still remember. Not bad at all. Do they not do this anymore? Hope the medicine helps and he feels better soon. Best way to help a cough is Vicks on the chest or in a steaming hot bowl or vaporizer.

Glad to hear you guys came through that one unscathed! We did too. My friend and boss, not so much. He and his family live in The Heights and had a fair bit of damage. Pine trees downed on the neighbor’s car. Other neighbor’s pecan tree through the fence into their yard and no power for who knows how long. The silver lining is at least the trees didn’t smash into the house. 
 

The convoys of linemen and picker trucks have been fairly steady, so that’s at least something positive. I spoke to my brother who’s an industrial electrician, curious about how long it takes to put the new transmission pylons in place since so many were damaged. He said good crews who work together can probably get 2 to 3 of them up in a day. I was honestly impressed. Hopefully that’s true because that transmission line that came down on 290 is apparently responsible for energizing around 100,000 homes. 
 

Interestingly, the kids had their Oath ceremony scheduled for today and despite there having been a bunch of power outages around Gears Rd, USCIS was open and the ceremony went on as planned. It was a majority kids ceremony, which was kind of cool. We’re doing a little victory dance because we’re FINALLY finished dealing with USCIS!
