Good Morning Maysters!

I got to sleep in until 6:30 this morning! Yeehah! I also went to bed at 9:30 last night and slept all the way through. That's nine, count them NINE hours of uninteruppted, blissful sleep! Yesterday was a great day - Holden and I spent the whole day together, dinked around at the mall, went to see Chicken Little, etc. The movie was great! I was a little skeptical, but it was VERY funny! Today is Mommy and Livvie day - Aaron left for work at 5:30 and isn't sure when he'll be home. Somewhere between noon and 4:00pm, probably. You'd have to know my DH, but he has a severe "Time-Space-Continuum" issue. If he says he'll be back in 1/2 hour, he could be gone for 2 hours. If he says he's going to run into a store or something while I wait in the car, he could be gone FOREVER. That's why I always have a book with me... Not sure what we're going to do today. Probably clean house, go grocery shopping. I've already read 6 books to Livvie and she's only been up for a little while... Anyway, hope you all have a fabulous day today. Do something for *you* today! Becky 287/289/Not sure yet

WooHoo! Glad you got some extra sleep Becky! Sleep is soooooo wonderful. I took my daughter to see Chicken Little earlier in the week. She's 7 and loved it too. She had a friend spend the night last night, so I was awakened by two little people standing next to my bed at 6:30am asking for breakfast! Have a good day! ~Wanda

Its an interesting day here. My family and I are all home together for the first time in nearly a week. 4 of the 5 of us are sick with various ailments ranging from a cold (me) to ear infections, to pink eye, etc. And yet we may take the dog and go for a hike in a nearby wildlife sanctuary. If our pink-eyed child doesn't have to go to the doctor, that is.

Bummer, Tom. We've been trading colds and stuff here, too. Last week, Holden had something like the 24 hour flu, except it lasted about 2.5 days. Aches, pains, fevers, sinus issues... I started the Zicam right away - I can't afford to be sick right now (not that there's a good time, that is.) This week, Livvie's had a head/chest cold. Again, started the Zicam back up. So far, Aaron and I have been lucky! Hike sounds fun today. I was thinking about doing the same thing with Livvie - it's chilly, not quite 50 yet here, but sunny and beautiful.
