Today is a blechy day. My jaw is still sore from the dental work I had done. I have a cold, runny nose and scratchy "phroat", and to top it all off, it's raining.
Blech blech blech
At least the kiddos are playing nicely. Though bud is sick too. And kitty seems to be a little snarky this morning too.
Think I might make some soup for lunch today. Chicken noodle, with big thick noodles. And maybe make some pbj sandwiches cut into little triangles.

"Here they come... walking down the street...
Sunday, January 13, 2008
After a morning filled with working out and playing Wii, we decided that it was time to get out of the house. Off for an Adventure, off to look for the thing called "snow."
We packed up the car with kids, jackets, blankets, cameras and of course the anticipation of an afternoon of fun.
Just an average car trip until our first encounter. You know the kind... black and white, flat and *REALLY* stinky. I'd forgotten that particular perfume. *gag* Kitty decided that she wanted to just get as far away as possible as it was really stinky. On the other hand, Bud, wanted to stop and examine the road-pizza of stinkiness.
Thankfully we continued on.
We arrived at our destination, seeing patches of snow high on the hills, but without seeing any snow close-up. Kitty was devistated and broke down. I felt so bad. We did stop at a local eatery and grab a snack. Figured we were looking for snow, so might as well grab a blizzard or two and a couple sundaes. Would have been ironic had our Adventure been today instead of yesterday.
We headed home with promise of Adventure at some other time. Maybe in a couple of months when it's time for the Grand Adventure.

Happy New Year (a little late)
So far this year is going well. Nobody's been sick, hospitalized or completely irritating (at least at home). Heck, I've even managed to correctly date things with '08.
A, who is now being called Bud, has developed a fondness for my cellphone and my "MP player". I believe he thinks he's ready to be grown up, even though he still complains that he's too little when carrying groceries from the car. Don't get me wrong though, he's still showing signs of being the overly-sensitive little guy he is.
M, who we will now call Kitty, is growing up in her own right. She passed her muffin test and passed her brownie test, now if we can just get her to pass the stirring test we can all sit back and feast on baked goods! Too bad her mom (and dad so I'm told) won't let her open or close the oven yet. Mmmmm cake batter...
As for hubbster and I, we are resolving to get back on track come Monday. Time to get back on schedule since I'll be back to work on Monday as well. Working out should entail my muscles getting bigger, not my rear. Heck, I'm even in the midst of reorganizing the kitchen to help encourage better eating and re-establish that thing called "cooking at home" that seems to have flown out the window.
