In my mind

I'm a great blogger. But actually taking the time to do it - yikes. Doesn't happen much.

So what's up with us lately? Well, we had Christmas, New Year's, I turned 30, etc. Cole's 7th b-day is coming up on the 24th. That's crazy! How did that many years go by so quickly?

This week our excitement has come in the form of colds! All the kidlings have gotten one, and we're debating whether we take them to the dr. I don't normally do much for colds or flu except the usual fluids and rest therapy, but today I knew Luke needed help. He's been prone to bronchiolitis when he gets a cold. His puffer is out, and expired, and he was struggling with breathing. So off we went. I felt bad not getting everyone checked out as they're all coughing a lot, but one at a time. No one else is struggling like he was. Anyway, a dose of ventilin at the hospital and two prescriptions later and it looks like we're on the road to recovery.

I'm not feeling great. Drs' are both suggesting the pain I've been having is ligament related, but it just feels wrong. I have some other pains that feel exactly like they describe for ligament pain and stretching, but this other pain is something else. I hope I'm wrong, but I'm concerned it might be something like gall bladder or appendicitis.

Winter is wonky this year. We've had maybe three snowfalls, but not a real "storm". Hoping for temperatures to stay down now for a couple of months so we can get some snow and do some snowmobiling!

In-laws gave us "saloon doors" for our laundry room. We haven't gotten them yet, but I'm anxious for them to be ready. Will be nice to block the view into my nasty laundry room!

Am wishing I could get some painting done around here, but it doesn't look like that's going to happen any time soon. Well, it will give me more time to plan exactly what I'm looking for in each room.

That's about it for now. Hopefully I'll keep this up better.

    yes we are recovered. Luke is still on a puffer for another week (though I keep forgetting to give it to him). Cole is done his antibiotics (ear infection). And no one else needed medical intervention.
