Run Down and Sick

I seem to have caught another cold... I swear I spend the entire winter with a cough, sore throat, and clogged nose. I'm so tired of it. The worst part is, yesterday I was saying how this cold wasn't so bad (I'm the 5th in the house to catch it) and that the cough was annoying but I was glad I didn't feel completely down. As the day has gone on today, I've felt worse and worse, and now I just want to lay down.

If only a nap was possible.  Tonight, the big 3 have swimming lessons. As they are only 30 minutes long, I need to stick around. Usually I don't mind, but when my chest and throat are sore, nothing sounds quite as awful as sitting in a chlorine filled room. I'll be there again for Scottie's lessons, tomorrow morning also.

Tonight, I'm making Sloppy Joes and roasted veggies for dinner tonight. I've seen Sloppy Joes on several meal plans lately and it sounds delicious.

I had a grocery delivery this morning.





(The worst part is, this will do for breakfasts, lunches and snacks for the rest of the week, but only 2 dinners.)

Thank goodness I didn't have to brave the store feeling this rough, for a big trip like today. I may have top venture out shortly for cold meds though.  Maybe I'll try to send Shawn if I can't round some up around here.

Alright, I'm done being a whiner and completely annoying. I need to get the kids to the pool anyway and I can't do that until I round up their goggles and towels.

As I look outside my window::: The sun is shining so bright and it's absolutely gorgeous outside. The leaves are just starting to change. We put up our outside decorations last night for fall and Halloween. It's looks so cute out there. Right now I am:::: Sitting at the counter trying to quickly type up this post and eat my breakfast.

Long Time, No Talk

 Hey!! It’s been so long since I’ve come on here with anything other than recipes. Sadly, I haven’t been cooking much lately, so I don’t have any new recipes at the moment, but I have been super busy. It’s Nutcracker season in our house. It’s Christmas time, school concert time, and we have a million birthdays happening now and soon, but the thing that’s taking up all of our time is Nutcracker Shenanigans. All three girls are in the show. This year, Scottie is a sunflower. Rylie is a party child, a strawberry, and the understudy for both Clara and Fritz. Sydney is a snow, a trooper, and a part time flower. Ben is also working tech for the show. He’s been helping set everything up, and during the show he’ll be working the light board. I’ve been volunteering by watching littles during the tech week rehearsals, and another mom and myself have taken on the responsibility of running the Nutcracker Tea Party fundraiser for the pre professional dance company. It’s been fun, exhausting, someti
