It's February today, and you know what that means? It means it's Chris month! But also, it's Camp Sparkle month! 28 sleeps!

It also means I need to post my first Chris ficlet at some time today, and as it's not actually finished at the moment, I need to get that done.

I'd say I hope February goes better than January, but it hasn't started well. James has an infection in his knee, which has swollen badly, right where the strap of his artificial leg goes. Which as you can imagine, isn't comfortable at all. He was at the doctor's yesterday and if it's not better by today he needs to go to the hospital. Which yeah, I suspect I know where I'll be later.

I really need to get Corey's passport sorted later too. He's got the opportunity to go to the Alps with the Scouts, which is such an amazing opportunity, especially as we've been told we can get grants to cover the majority of the cost. The rest he has to raise himself, doing things like bag packing at our local supermarket. But of course to go he needs a passport, which mam is paying for, thankfully.

So, a busy day and hopefully an evening of watching SPN, Project Runway, reading the flist, reading fic and maybe even answering some emails, because man, I so suck. I'm just glad it's Friday really, every week I aim for Friday because it means I can sleep in the next day.

Ouch, poor James! He's been a bit short on luck lately. Hope he'll get better soon!

And that's awesome for Corey! Which side will he go to, then? I mean, which country?

SPN is downloading as we speak, Ican'twaitomg!

Poor James - he's having a really rough time of it, isn't he?

But yay for Corey getting a chance like that - is he really old enough to get a part time job already??!!

Nope, not yet :)

It's a voluntary thing at the Co Op. They let the scouts come in and pack bags, and people throw money in a bucket. The scouts get to keep that.

Poor James but go Corey, such a mixed bag, eh.

I look forward to your Chris ficlet!

(I'm so happy it is Friday, you have no idea!)

It really is a mixed bag.

Man, Fridays are the day I aim for now. All I can think of is lying in the next day. I'm so sad.

Poor James! He really hasn't had an easy time lately! I'm keeping my fingers crossed the infection won't get worse and tell him I'm thinking of him!

Corey going to the Alps, wow! That sounds fabulous!!

Fridays are GOOD days!!

He really hasn't. It's been one thing after another :(

The Alps is such a great opportunity for him, especially with getting a grant toward most of the cost. Of course no doubt I'll be fretting when he's gone.

I love Fridays the best!

Well there is 29 days this month, but I go to Camp Sparkle on the 29th, so only 28 sleeps until then *g*

Aw, poor James. I guess it doesn't help if we send him sparkly boys to make it better huh. How about a few exotic fishes?

Hurray for Corey but OMG!!SO!!SCARY!!!! kind of like my nephews trip to Ohio. But he was fine and is now 'big man'.

Can't wait for the ficlets! Karey's doing it too.

Hee, yes. The fishies would probably make him happier.

It is scary! It will be the first time he's been away from home for more than a week, and out of the country on top of that. I know I'll miss him dreadfully, but it's such a great opportunity I really want him to go too.

A passport means he's got to be going to Switzerland, right? Sounds like a great opportunity.

Yep. It's a really cool thing. Of course I'm nervous as all heck because it'll be the first time he's been away from home for more than a weekend...eeep.

The Alps??? That would be fabulous! Do you think he'll meet Heidi?

I'm really hoping for a better February too, at least school-wise. But yay for Corey! Travelling is so much fun. Can't wait for Camp Sparkle!!

I really hope you get a better February. I have to say, mine hasn't started that well.

But, Camp Sparkle soon!
