SICKIES

everyone hates being sick. duh. well we are sick, and obviously we hate it. i had it bad earlier this week, now joseph has it worse. i had just been expecting it sooner this semester, and when i didnt get it, i thought we were in the clear. nope. no way jose. my perfect week off of school that i had set out to get many things accomplished was ruined with sore throats, sneezing, runny nose, endless tiredness. BUT i did manage to accomplish a few things that i set out to do:

finish painting all the spots left on the walls from the house guy

sanded, painted, and put hardware on a bookshelf that i meant to paint about four months ago. well its almost done, but i am pretty happy with it. joseph helped with all of it too!

entertained two brothers from opposite ends of the country for a weekend.

got a few things organized.

laundry.

got to watch all of "the biggest loser"

we finally got to take down the lava lavas from the windows and put up real window blinds. it has made all the difference in the world for some reason. i think they are beautiful.

got a solid start to a goal of running 150 miles by april 15th. thanks to lindsay for this one- i needed a point to running on the treadmill at the gym.

anyways..... gotta go get ready to somehow teach sharing time to a huge room filled with noisy primary kids. i hardly remember many sharing times, and i've only seen how its done a few times and i still have no idea what to do! we'll see how this goes.....

i'm sorry ya'll are sicky. You gave me a good idea about that 150 miles goal though. i'm trying to get back into running and maybe i'll set a goal myself(lower than that of course) in mileage. anyway, hope you feel better soon!

How many miles does crawling on the floor with your kids count? Sorry you all were sick. We've been trying to stay away from it as best we could. We've had little tinges of it, but nothing full blown yet--knock on wood.
