My husband wears a shirt that says, "Hard work must have hurt someone," and I think I know who that person is..... ME. I spent the better part of my day working with my son going through his bedroom, and preparing for the arrival of a new bed. I am sure that ibuprofen will be part of my nightly routine tonight. Sad part is.... we aren't finished. Ah well.... it's one of those chores that give you a feeling of satisfaction when you're done. I wonder how long it will take him to destroy all our hard work. Hmmmm.
RAK? Well,,, I didn't mention this the other day, so I'll take credit now. I brought bubbles for my niece and nephew on Saturday. It made their day....and it made me happy to see them happy. Today I made lunch for Ron.... Hmmm. That would count, except that he made dinner for all of us tonight, and it was amazing. He made a sauce out of blood oranges, and poured it over chicken and couscous. Add some steamed zuccini, and voolah! Healthy and tasty dinner. He wins :)
Three more months from today, and Andrew should be home. I can't wait to see him.
Fifty-two more days until I reach my "365 in 365" goal.
Still working on the 20 pounds goal. Hopefully I'll get there before my blog reaches the finish line.

Day 61
"Look at a day when you are supremely satisfied at the end. It's not a day when you lounge around doing nothing; it's when you've had everything to do, and you've done it." ~ Margaret Thatcher
I don't know,,,it's been a really long time since I lounged around doing nothing; right now it sounds quite tempting. I am no stranger to being busy, and I admit that I prefer having too much to do to having nothing to do....(there is never nothing to do.) But let's face it, there has to be a limit. In the past 9 days, I have facilitated two TLC days, celebrated my daughter and my husband's birthdays, went to my 30 year reunion, planned and carried out the program for our staff development, celebrated the birth of our new granddaughter,,,,taught my classes, and did it all while suffering from a cold. It's no wonder I had a brain warp and told my kids to wish their dad happy birthday---when his birthday isn't for 5 more months. Yeah, I'm losing it.
It's time for an extended weekend in Big Bear. Lounging.
Update on baby Jane--she came home today. She has a long, uphill climb ahead of her, be we are all glad she's home for now.
Got a disturbing call from Raechel,,,seems she might have a case of swine flu. Wow. Please keep her in your thoughts.
Planet "M"---I was wrong. They did care. A huge thanks to our staff for a great day :)
