I think MaxBabe is starting to get a little better.  After much coaxing, chiding and blatant order-giving, she finally ate something yesterday.  In fact, she ate more for dinner than she has the last couple days.  She kept telling the dog he couldn't have one of her sausages because she was under orders to eat.  And I was watching with eagle eyes to make sure she ate and didn't palm it all off to the dog.

We slept in separate beds last night.  She had one of her many nightly coughing fits   It was so loud and so prolonged that it actually woke me.  In another room.  Poor MaxBabe could barely breathe once the coughing fit subsided.  She did eventually get back to sleep, but is now awake from more coughing fits.  Despite the coughing, I think she's improving.  I mean, she's eating now..  and the fevers seem to have gone away.  That's improvement, right?

Anyway.. one more sleep and then it's CQ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I'll be packing today.  I really hope I haven't missed anything or forgotten anything.  It's always the way, isn't it, when you travel - always in the back of your mind, you're thinking, "what did I forget?", "did I leave the iron on?", "did I remember such-and-such?" etc.  So long as I have everything on my (long) list of stuff to take, then I'll be fine.
