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?

Tuesday: what I'm sure you've been wondering...

Why hasn't Amanda written for so long?

well, to be fair, I did write on Sunday but somehow the post got deleted and by the time I noticed it I didn't care...

This weekend I had a business meeting up in Cadillac. There was no Internet, which is why I didn't post. We got a lot of important business taken care of.




Sunday I got home and had a terribly sore throat. We went out for Fathers day with Ben's family, which was fun. Yay for fathers-in-law!!

Monday's achievement was that I managed to cut my bagel pretty well in half using a plastic knife. I've been having a problem getting my bagels cut well, so it was exciting.

Saturday: two toilets

I need two toilets right next to each other. One to throw up into and one to pee in while I throw up. My bladder control is rapidly disappearing when I throw up.

Edit: my OB told me to cross my legs. this seems like a much easier solution than installing another toilet.
