sick, sick, sick.
I made a great effort all week to stay on top of work, exercise, chores, and all the rest, despite Chloe’s being home sick for most of the week. I was ready to have a great weekend, free from all the “htings that must get done”. And then boom. As soon as I started to
taking the easy road.
The easy way out. Too often easy is looked down upon. But sometimes, easy works. One of my goals in my Energy and Empower year is to get out on longer walks more often. So far this year, I’ve made the effort to take some baby steps towards that goal. I’ve loaded Phelix up into
what’s this morning feeling?
For the first time in what seems like years, I woke this morning without an overwhelming feeling of exhaustion. Even though I could have slept for another hour, I “jumped” out of bed and started my day. As I had such an early start, I had a few moments to contemplate this burst of energy.

I’ll admit it; I have taken *terrible* care of my teeth. Nonetheless, I’ve been extremely lucky on the dental front. As a child, it was easy for me to go to the dentist, despite the 12 hour trip to get to my appointment. My granddaddy was my dentist and that worked out quite well for

Chloe’s been “sick” on and off for months now. In addition, she’s complained about a spot in her mouth near where she had a filling. But Chloe complains about everything. This hurts, that hurts. I’ve put off on having her tooth checked out as it just seemed like it was simply a little sensitive. Oops.
Happy Birthday to Me!
Thursday, my age was incremented by one. Other than the fabulous birthday wishes I received on Facebook, it was a fairly ordinary day around here. Work, shuttling Chloe around, moving forward on the to-do list filled my hours. But I also set aside some time for dreaming about what I want this year to be
threw in the towel
The pain in my knee not only didn’t get better overnight, it got worse and kept me up quite a bit tossing and turning. Although one of the issues I am forcing myself to deal with this year is my “white-coat syndrome”, Rob called his doctor for me and made an appointment for me, then
knocked out
I had grand plans for this weekend. Room of the month for April (a weird set of smaller rooms) was going to get done. The monthly “family” newsletter I enjoy writing was going to be written and sent out. Some new recipes were going to be tested. Not a bit of it got done. Last

The girls went to our pediatrician for their annual checkups. Dr. B was surprised to see us — it had been so long since she saw us last that she was sure we had moved away. As it goes, I can’t remember the last non-annual visit we made to the pediatrician other than the one
glasses – 2 mar 2011
I headed to the eye doctor and got glasses today. I can now see what I’m typing. Sweet.
To be ill or not to be ill
I am so frustrated with this “illness”. I’m just sick enough to feel low on energy and to want to not socialize in fear of infecting someone else. I’m not sick enough to throw in the towel and crawl into bed with no guilt. Today I’ve worked, done laundry, cleaned the house, made a goodwill
Feeling Better, Though Only Slightly
Today I caught up on hours missed at work last week due to what I now think was a virus (I should have taken a sick day!). I stayed on top of my other “projects”. I did a little more than the minimum amount of homeschooling with the girls. I made chowder from scratch for
weekend gone already?
How did it go by so quickly? My long list of things I was going to get done? Barely a dent in it. I managed to keep up with everything and even tackle the room of the week, but not much else, unfortunately. My body told me I needed a weekend of downtime. And I
Whatโs the most important thing youโre putting off?
Whatโs the most important thing youโre putting off? And why havenโt you done it yet? What do you need to make it happen? I’m putting off too many important things. But, at the moment, the most important thing I’ve been putting off is going to the doctor. I haven’t been for over three years (I
