even codeine doesn't put Aly to sleep--but (thankfully) it doesn't make her hyper either.

I, on the other hand, had a very unfortunate episode with a certain red Rx cough syrup when I was about 8 or 9. I was dancing on the dining room table and jumping and grabbing the curtains. I remember this episode and had no control over myself whatsoever. I then had an allergy test and was deemed allergic to a specific red food coloring, but I have no clue which one and I haven't avoided red stuff since my mom died. That cough syrup was the only thing I actually ever took that made me that way, but the dr had me off of ketchup, bbq sauce, red Kool-Aid, Hawaiian punch, etc.

The last time we drove at night was the time she was 5 and she stayed awake the entire night.We drove 12 hours to Chatanooga and the next day Gab's pupils were as big as a cats.After that we drove during the day.

Aly threw up Dimetapp when she was very young so I never tried it again. But it still took me about 10 years to realize she was throwing up the grape flavor.

I cannot stand any cough syrup...they all turn my stomach.

I don't even like fruity drinks that much unless it's real juice

I just ate a cheeseburger that Michael made on the grill

We're on the back porch

The kids are playing in the backyard

It is still light enough and warm enough that they can

I should get them in the shower but I'm being lazy

I'm drinking a glass of wine, and tuning Michael out while he talks about boring medical stuff, LOL

I can do fruity drinks (sans alcohol, that is...alcohol ruins it, but then again, fruity is the only type of alcohol I'd drink).
