Wow, it's been awhile....

Last Monday I was ready to do an update, but then all heck broke loose. Well, not really, but we had several interesting days that week.

Some stuff happened with a really good friend of mine, but I decided for privacy sake, not to publish it here on my blog. But, everyone is doing well and certain people are on the road to recovery (not that kind of recovery, rehab was not involved). Anyhoo, I know that was rather cryptic, but hey, I gotta do, what I gotta do. So, that was Monday.

Tuesday was the Blue and Gold Banquet at Scouts. I think it went really well. We had Chinese food because the theme was Chinese New Year. I got my 1 year pin and a thank you since I am now no longer in scouts. I'll miss it!

Wednesday was really hard. Joey wasn't feeling well, so I left work early to help James out with the kids since he was also not feeling well. First we went to the International Festival at the kids school. It's really fun, they do it every year. Each class does a different country and decorates and brings food from said country. You completely get a full meal while you are there. Nice! We had food from India, Africa, Brazil, China, Japan, England, Ireland, Greece, Egypt, Mexico...it was great! You carry a passport around and get it stamped, and when it's full your kiddo gets a prize. Very fun! After that, I took Abby to her dance class at Countryside Rec with the City of Surprise. She had a great time and participated. I was hoping we wouldn't have a repeat of last year's t-ball debacle. I had to drag her to the plate then pull her around the bases. Visions of this kept flashing in my head, and with my knee injury... Yup, it was still not working and as of today, is finally starting to really feel better. I just would so much enjoy hoping around the room with a bunch of little girls getting my ballet on. But, she did fine and it was fun.

Thursday Joey was still feeling bad, but insisted on going to his Musical Theater class. He had so much fun! It's also with the City.

Friday I was off work and after I dropped Abby at school (Joey stayed home with his sick dad) I went to Sprouts with Sophie to pick up stuff for the Primary Quarterly Activity that was scheduled for Saturday morning. We had fun picking out different things to put into trail mix. Sophie was the taste tester :) James and Joey slept most of the day. *sigh* I picked up Abby from school and then went to have my nails filled. Got my same nail tech and we had another great conversation about movie and t.v. After that I went home and got everything ready for the next day.

So, Saturday morning. I survived! We survived! It went well. The kids had fun, they listened and the trail mix was a success. All I can say is at least these puppies are only quarterly activities! After that I went home and crashed.

The rest of the weekend really consisted of sick kids, worrying about church and worrying about everything else. I do have a canker sore from all the worrying (I get those instead of ulcers-I'm strange). I'm looking forward to this week and hoping everything goes better!!!
