ICKY weather

It's one of those nasty, icky, drippy, drizzly kind of days. The sky is gray and the ground is wet. Lily and I have thus far frittered the morning away watching movies and being grateful that we don't have to be outside.

I have a strange cough that started on Sunday and seems to be getting worse. I think you're supposed to give it a week before you go to the dr but I don't seem to have any kind of cold with it. I feel like I'm having a hard time taking a really deep breath and it woke me up last night.

Speaking of last night, I don't know what exactly was going on but around midnight we woke up to what sounded like a SWAT team helicopter landing on our roof. There were spotlights and all kinds of whoosing copter blade sounds. It was all very dramatic and over in about 5 minutes and quiet the rest of the night. Still, it was a strange thing to wake up to. I couldn't find any mention of it on the news today.
