February....in a minute.

Here goes.. whats new with me and the gang.
Since the new year we have had some sort of illness, injury, or oddity in this house every weekend.
Begin, the arm that I got my flu shot in, was fine until a month afterwards when I felt as if it were going to fall off.  I have a toothache pain in the ARM for three solid days.  Thought of going to the ER but it eased up and got better.
24 hr stomach flu, a coldsore the size of mount Rushmore.
A pimple, to beat all pimples which took over the entire lower half of my face.  Like a toothache.  huge cellulitis looking pimple.  Until it finally got tired out and went away.
Jack had strep, Allie had Tonsillitis...twice.  Andy had his shoulder surgery at the end of January, which has turned our home into the sick ward.  Bedroom a long term hospital room.  Books, magazines, clothes, cold packs, heating pads, pajamas, water cups, and more books.  EVERYWHERE.
what else?  I started a new job which I must say is awesome.
Missi is the easiest child on the planet, she works, goes to school, visits her boyfriend.. repeat.
Allie is working at the hospital in ICU, going to school, boyfriend.. repeat.
Jack is go to school, homework, hang with mommy EAT.. repeat.  He is definitely working on a growth spurt because he is constantly eating something.  good news.
I haven't walked in probably a month.  I hardly get to brush my teeth alone so the idea of walking has been just that... am idea.
Oh yeah I had bronchitis, sinusitis, and a bout of leg pain (?). 
Must say though I have read alot of good books.
So now what, what am I going to talk about that is philosophical yet entertaining at the same time.?  What can I discuss.. with myself.. that seems even the slightest bit memorable to anyone that may possibly still pop on by.?
New job?  Well.. I feel effective, I am feeling as if I may on the cusp of something really exciting.  A new school with clean empty classrooms, al the equipment that I coul dimagine to teach adult students aout starting their lives over.  I am right there.  I was the first instructor, in the first classroom, on the first day of a brand new school.
Allie has her tonsils out on Wednesday.  She will be fine I know.  I hate to see any of them in pain.  It will be difficult I know, since I had mine out at 35 and it hurt.  Hopefully a quick recovery.
I need to shop and fill up the house with popsicles and juice pops yogurts. 
Missi had her hair done tonight and honestly... it was a train wreck, hopefully it is fixed. If not her sister is taking her back in the am to straighten these buttheads out. 
What else?
The cousins came over for cards.  I had Andys Aunts over one night for snacks.
Andy turns 45 in a few days. 
We have had no snow, not a single flake.
Andy is now on the board of trustees of the forty fort cemetery, which by default means I am now gojng to be aware of events and cleanups and whatever may need to be done there.  I am happy for that.
I will see my health coach on Friday morning after a month off with work and everything.  I am not as on board with that as I was.  I hope to get back on track after our Friday meeting.
Going to zumba tomorrow night with the girls.  I think if I dont poop out by then.
Just tired,  real tired at night.  This working is for the birds.
OK well.. that's all I have for now.  Hopefully inspiration comes my way to get back on track with both blogging, walking and healthy eating soon... real soon.  I miss feeling good.  Maybe I'll walk in the morning after I drop off Jack.?
BTW Jack is still in Kindergarten, he has not yet been arrested, expelled, excommunicated, exorcised, deported, locked up, locked down, canonized, sworn in, reported, exported, or tarred and feathered.
Life is good.
