Annabel just turned 4. She and Owen are only a few weeks apart, IIRC.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Em sees me naked quite often (well, when I'm getting dressed), as I did (and still do) my mother and sister. The women in my family have very few boundaries with each other. It's quite amusing to me.

And Mal just turned 3, didn't he? (OK, that was probably like, six months ago, and it's "just turned" in my brain, but)

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Isn't Deena's Aidan 3-4ish?

I was going to say--Kara will be turning 7 this year, no? So Aidan has to be around...4?

Yes, Aidan has to be around 4.

Re: nakedness in front of family members--I'm with Aims in how the women in my family consider nudity, as in no big deal amongst ourselves. I remember being in 8th grade and getting out of the shower with only my underwear on, leaning out of the bathroom and telling my (5-years-older) brother not to look down the hall while I went to my bedroom. I'd get out, he'd teasingly say, "I'm looking..." and I'd shriek and then run. It became a ritual. (I also got embarassed by pad/tampon commercials if he was watching tv with me.)

As a solo apartment dweller, I always leave the bathroom door open, and my cat is always there to check out/use her own litter box (also in the bathroom), jump up on the sink and explore or accept petting, or jump into the tub and sniff around. Otherwise, she just lays down in the hallway just outside the bathroom and watches me. Occasionally, she'll stake a seat on the folded-up bath towel I leave on the sink while I take a shower. The last time she did this, she meowed at me constantly while I was showering, apparently concerned about my mental health for deliberately getting wet.

The status is NOT quo.

Can I get some medical hivemind advice from those who have had pneumonia or breathing disorders? I'm having a hard time breathing--can't get a deep breath without violent and painful coughing--and my diaphragm is so sore from a week of coughing that it feels like a knife in my chest every time I cough. I don't want to overreact, but is this a sign that I'm not getting enough oxygen? Should I have ND take me to the hospital? I tried the inhaler the doctor gave me, but it isn't helping much. It's not constant, sometimes I feel like I'm breathing okay, but I feel like I'm fighting for breath a lot of the time. What should I do?
