Chase missed two more days of school this week -- Tuesday and Wednesday. He went back to school on Thursday, still with a cough. Each day he was off, Nanaw went up to school to the black box to pick up the homework the teachers had left for him. Each, day, the black box was packed to the top, indicating how many boys and girls were out sick. Chase worked really hard to keep up with his homework and to study for upcoming tests. Nanaw was very proud of him and knew how hard it was for him to study when he felt so bad. He had three chapters of the Hobbit to read and do worksheets for. He had two chapters of vocabulary to do and to study for next Wednesday's test. There were two science tests and a religion test, plus a grammar test and a geography test. He took some of the tests and will take the rest next week. Mama said she should have bought some Vick's, and Nanaw said she had some, and she put it on Chase. He said it helped with his sore throat and cough. His friend Brady was out three days with influenza B. Nanaw bought an electric blanket from Amazon like Mama and Chase have, and Chase wanted to try it out. On Wednesday, Chase went to Brittany for a haircut, and Nanaw took a picture. There was a sleepover and a session at Main Event planned for Chase's friend Cole's birthday but it was still up in the air. Cole had a fever last night but managed to get through school on Friday. So Chase is waiting to see if it happens or if it's postponed. On Friday night, Chase, Mama and Daddy were supposed to go out to dinner with Chase's hockey team at a place in South County called Hot Shots. But Chase wasn't sure if he felt well enough to go. Nanaw is waiting to hear what happened. Chase hasn't had much of an appetite or eaten much while he's been sick so Nanaw is going to wait until the end of the month to weigh and measure him because she's sure he's lost weight. Mama is going to fix a Valentine's dinner Saturday night, and she invited Nanaw. Nanaw hopes Chase gets his appetite back and eats something. Nanaw is going to go over early, before dinner, to study with Chase. They're going to work on the Hobbit chapter 5 worksheet, vocabulary chapter 21, and the geography notes. Mama asked Uncle Mike about Valentine's Day, and he said he and Aunt Becky had ordered dinner from Paul's: steak, twice-baked potatoes, salad and a cookie. Yum! Nanaw put up Valentine magnets on her gnome plaques.
