Monday: what was I going to say?

Hmm...I had a plan on what I was going to write tonight, but I've completely forgotten what it was.

So let's see...I want to thank Cheryl for getting groceries for us last week. The last few weeks were really rough and coming home to groceries, a clean kitchen, and flowers was awesome.

Today I got really dizzy. So much that I was even dizzy while sitting down so I went to the bathroom so I could put I head in between my knees. Oof. After 10 minutes I got up and was doing ok though.

I was going to take some of my medicine this morning only to find out that I had grabbed an empty packet. I ended up ok, but it was a little scary. Maybe good for me, but I would rather have had my medicine.

When I got home tonight I actually had some energy. It was crazy. I made my muffins (the batter was already made), two emails were sent out, I cleaned some of the kitchen, and started another load of wash. I know that doesn't necessary sound difficult, but I'm pretty sure it's more than I've done the last several weekends.

Monday: stairs

I don't like going up and down stairs with people. It turns out that I'm really slow, especially at climbing stairs. My feet just don't seem to go as fast as other peoples'.

Today I was going up some stairs with someone and he was seriously all the way up when I was on the middle landing. It's kind of depressing. But there's nothing that I can do about it.

Sunday: easy day

Today was a pretty laid back day. We went to church, I took a nap, and we had pizza and watched a movie. I had been hoping to get a few more chores done, but I guess that didn't happen. Oh well.

Sunday: sick

I am really, really sick of being sick. I'm in my twelfth week! I thought I was supposed to be all better by now.

Ben still has high hopes I'll be better by vacation; I'm not so sure.

Friday: forgotten things

Tonight we went to Subs 'n more for dinner. (It's kind of like Quiznos...but better.) It is on my favorite restaurants in Holland list, but I often forget about it...I don't think that I've been there since college. It was as good as I remember it being though.

Then we went to the Peanut Store and I got some pick-a-mix candy. It included Carmel cremes. Yum. I like those candies a lot too, but they aren't very main stream and so I forget about them.

Thursday: things I realize

As I sit here on my sheet-less bed, I start thinking about all the other places I could go to sleep so that I don't have to make the bed when Ben comes to bed after I've fallen asleep.

Couch in the basement. couch upstairs. Tell Ben not to make the bed. the other bed.

what? The other bed? Ben and I have both managed to be sick this past week with a cough. A loud, obnoxious cough, and so we've been sleeping in different places. This is the first time in our married lives that we've done this, but it's been necessary. Usually Ben ends up on the couch because he's nice like that. and then tonight I realized that we have a second bed. Oops.

Wednesday: blue shirt day

Today was apparently the day to wear your blue shirt. About three quarters of the people were wearing one.

I was wearing one too, even though I didn't get the memo. and I'm pretty sure there was an actual memo since a lot of the people were wearing the same blue shirt.

Did you wear a blue shirt?
