On Hiatus

Wow…it’s been a while. Sorry for the absence. I was sick last week…cold, sore throat…and trying to prep for DH’s b-day at the same time.

Thursday I went in to work just for a bit. E had a dentist appt. She did great! She has 20 teeth and went through the whole deal, fluoride and everything without complaint. I left work when she was done (around 10 am). DH & I dropped her to daycare and ran a few errands. Got home, had lunch and rested all afternoon. I needed it! I managed to bake a carrot cake with cream cheese icing, from scratch. Yeah baby, there’s no other way. Friday morning I woke to a terribly sore throat so I called in sick. DH dropped the girls to daycare. I rested on the couch most of the morning. Swept and tidied a bit b/c of DH’s party (the show went on). MIL made wings, meatballs, rice and I whipped up a salad. Everyone had a good time. We had fun playing the Wii too! We gave DH a Wii points card and he downloaded Bomberman. Super fun if you haven’t played it. Hmm…let’s see what else is new.

Saturday, stayed home and relaxed. I skipped choir practice and church since I still didn’t have a voice. DH & I thought we’d catch a movie in the evening (Bring a friend for $1.99) but the line was outside the door. We went to Chapters and browsed around then picked up a rental (Tropic Thunder) and headed home. Movie was pretty good. Sunday, MIL took the family to breakfast at Smitty’s. The girls did pretty good considering L was tired…and we discovered (after her biting off a piece of crayon) that she has 2 more teeth!!! Afterwards, we went home and got L to bed. DH, E & I went to church. I scrapped in the afternoon (9 pages) and watched Tinkerbell with E in the evening.

Still after all that rest, you’d think I felt well rested. Not so much. I’m sure by tomorrow I’ll feel more myself. I’ve skipped working out since being sick and I miss it. Honestly, I figure it won’t do me any good to try to force myself through it. Well, hope your weekend was a germ-free, restful/fun one.

TTFN!
