I’ve recovered from my yucky bout of the flu. Yay! I feel back to normal today, and was happy to go to Mom To Mom. It snowed last night (why does it always snow the night before I have to drive somewhere?!), so it made for a slow drive to Geoff’s work, and not as slow out to MTM. Usually Thursday mornings tucker out the little tucker, but not today, he’s just finally going for his nap now at 3pm. My friend Jan came over to watch him while I took Honey Cat for her yearly check-up, and they both seemed fine when I got back 50 minutes later. Honey Cat is in great shape for her age, the vet was impressed. The one thing she needs, didn’t surprise me, but disappointed Geoff, Honey needs to get her teeth cleaned again. It’s been two years since her last dentist visit, so I’m not surprised, I expected she’d have teeth/gum issues. But she’s a member of this family, and her teeth are hurting, so we have to get that fixed. I doesn’t look like she’ll need any teeth removed, so hopefully it will stay this way. We really should think about pet insurance. 🙂

Well, I have an hour to squeeze in a nap before we have to go get Geoff. Sucks having only one car, but we can’t afford two. That was a choice we made, to have a nice house and no second car.

I’ll close with a quote from Just Shoot Me.

Nina: Honesty is one of those things people say they want, but they really don’t, like education or children

Sanka Coffie: I am feeling very Olympic today, how about you?

We’ve got to stop watching so much olympics. We’re dreaming about the olympics! (I am feeling much better, thank you for your prayers)

NBC, and CNBC have been giving us a ton of coverage, I’m fairly impressed. If I stayed up until all hours, I could watch curling. As it is, I get my olympic news from cbc.ca, which I’m pretty happy with. Now, if they would just stop talking about Bode Miller every 10 seconds!, I’d be happy. 🙂

For all the advice Wilson gives House, that’s the thing he decides to do?!? Oooh, what a slippery slope you are going down my friend.

Skating With Celebrities. I am horrified to read all over the internet that Lloyd Eisler left his wife for Kristy Swanson! What? Sigh. I’ll say it again, doesn’t anyone view marriage as sacred? But I called it, that it would go down to Kristy & Lloyd vs. Jillian & John.

Since I opened with a quote from Cool Runnings, I may as well close with a quote from it too.

Irv: Our Father, who art in Calgary, Bobsled be thy name. Thy kingdom come, gold medals won, on Earth as it is in Turn Seven. With Liberty and Justice for Jamaica and Haile Selassie. Amen.

9 wonderful years that get better every day. I love you Geoff, I’d marry you all over again. (But let’s elope next time)

To Colin & Dawn, I love you guys so much!

Ugh.

Obviously I didn’t see the circle before hand. Elijah gets a cold, recovers, I lose my voice for a few days, and Elijah gets the flu. Elijah recovers, and now I have flu-like symptoms. Joy! Please pray it’s a day long thing, as I don’t want to be battling this all week.

We’re all a little off this morning, Elijah kept us up from 2:30am-5:00am. He just wanted to be held, and only by mom, and only in an upright position. Poor Geoff has to work, whereas Elijah and I will be able to nap. On the plus side (there’s a silver lining in everything), Elijah didn’t throw up yesterday. Yay!

Someone is planning a trip to Aurora for March, I’ll post more when it gets solidified. It almost seemed like husbands were against visiting Colorado for whatever reason. At least one wife is still planning on coming in the fall, with or without hubby.

No plans for the weekend. The usual chores, and if Elijah is still really ill, he & I will stay home and Geoff will greet at church by himself.

Next week is our anniversary, 9 years. Whoo! No plans. 🙂 I told Geoff I can wait on celebrating until we get to CA. I mean out there, we can easily get a babysitter and we could go out to dinner, or something. It’s all up in the air. Who says you have to celebrate on the day of? One thing that is certain is that I get flowers, it’s our one tradition.

Sunday is Athena’s baby shower, I hope she has a good time. It should be all about her, because once the baby comes, you fade into the background. But you get to beam when people tell you how beautiful your baby is.

I’ll close with a quote from Apollo 13.

Marilyn Lovell: Blanche, Blanche, these nice young men are going to watch the television with you. This is Neil Armstrong, and this is Buzz… Aldrin.
Neil Armstrong: Hi.
Blanche Lovell: Are you boys in the space program too?
