Spring please!!

Woke up this morning again with a sore throat. Way tired of the sickies. But I will survive Hey Hey! (I always have to sing that when I say survive Hey Hey!) So other then that I fell pretty good. So tired of school I am ready for Spring Break we hadn't planned on taking it off but I think we need a break. My school is going pretty well but it is harder then I had thought it would be, my teacher is very nice and let me and others rewrite our papers if we needed to. I needed too. So the only thing getting me through is that I am half way done and I show up to class and participate so I hope that is worth some extra points. I need a C so I hope that I do get it. I am learning but,college is very different and I hope the difficulty of this class will prepare me for my other classes.

So 10 things I like about Spring!

1.Flowers blooming. I do not have a green thumb so I must admire others flowers but I do love them. Oohh a field trip to the Botanical Gardens!!!

2. Flip Flops. I love that they are back in style.

3. Sunshine.

4. Fresh air, cool breezes.

5. Trips to the beach before it gets to hot.

6. It's not a 114 degrees yet.

7. Swimming or watching the kids swim when it is really to cold but they don't care.

8. Easter and Easter dresses, Easter egg hunts. We always had a big hunt at my PawPaw's I'll miss that.

9. Sitting in the backyard music on,BBQing, drinking a cool beverage. With my sweetie or course.

10. Everything becoming new again. The grass, the trees, the flowers everything.

So eagerly awaiting Spring, and eagerly awaiting May 2 (that would be the end of English 101) and on to new Summer classes.

I had great fun helping at Kim's yesterday I was so motivated and enjoyed scrubbing the floors with a rag(I have never done that before) I came home and did it to my floors. Loved it they are so pretty. The house is clean which always makes me happy. I used to wonder why things in life happen. Why God? It is hard to look at it from why not; I have been through things that made me question God and His love for me. I have learned so much this past year about God's devine providence and seen such strength in our church that I hope I am better at not questioning God and to accepted what He has planned for me whatever it may be. To have heart ache and know that from that God is working. To suffer and to know that how I suffer may help someone else. To be helpful and always thinking of other does not come naturally to me, I am trying and hope that I can get better at it. I think that I want to know why but truly that would be to much for me and to give all things to God is forever the challenge. Yesterday was a sad and happy day to be able to pray with each other and to feel the depth of our love through the love of God was so moving and so powerful. I think that that is what the meaning of church is and why God's wants us to be part of the body so we can grow and love each other through everything.

FLURRY!!!

Zachary does not feel well he is worse than a 2 year old with the whining. He thinks sick means laying on the couch or playing his game cube. It means you need a nap. So he is crying and won't just rest in his bed. Maybe I am horrible and should just let him watch TV but he tends to be like me and has lazy down real good. So maybe he will rest maybe not I am ready for SPRING!!!! I mean it is snow flurrying today yesterday it was 70 degrees. CRAZY!!!!

I ran 8 whole minutes today twice. YEAH!!! That is the most I have ran since Jr.High when they made you. I really like it it feels good do to something I never thought I could do. I also need to get over that I should lose a least 5 to 10 pounds a week now that I am a "runner". I feel like a new mom who's baby is the greatest baby ever like I have done something so unique. So I will not try to talk about it to much but am really great at it now that I have been doing it for 8 whole weeks so I must share my vast knowledge of running with everyone. Just kidding.

So maybe it will get warmer and I will shrink a little or not. I wish that I could have a week on the beach. With the kids and a nanny for the kids so I can see them some but not a lot. I know,never going to happen but a girl has to have her dreams.

Sick

We are sick I felt like yuck yesterday head cold, laid on the couch and slept off and on all day. Zachary then started trowing up right after lunch luckily only two or three times. I know I should probably know how many times but remember I was asleep and he is 9 and can run fast a make it to a toilet. So if there is anything good about trowing up is when your kid can make it to the toilet. My baby is growing up:( As you know I have been mourning the loss of my 150 channels since we down graded. I am so spoiled and am realizing this. I have made it and got the first much, much lower bill so it is not quiet as painful anymore. When is game cube to much? 3 hours 7 hours? Is it wrong for them to watch TV right after I say turn that off and do something productive like watch TV!!! I think they are about ready for a pop quiz on Logo Star Wars. So hope everyone gets better and spring will get here soon. Can you say hay fever?

Trying to do nothing.

The kids are at my Mom's. I woke up all on my own this morning. Nobody had to be feed but me. I am trying to do nothing. It is not as easy as it sounds. I have watched a lot of TV and lounged a good bit but now its 2ish and I just changed out the laundry. Took a shower. Cleaned the kitchen. I can't stop. Why is it so hard to do nothing? I mean I dream of doing nothing but never seem to get to. So I promised myself that today I would do nothing. But alas I can't seem to stop myself. Maybe I need an intervention. Someone to stand over me and make me relax, but if someone was coming over I would really have to get the house in order. So I guess I have enjoyed doing things on my schedule today so that is sort of like doing nothing isn't it?

Also it is to quiet I have the TV and radio on, the dry and wash are making noise. But no one is running around being crazy. Max did bark this morning at something but that only lasted a few minutes he is very quite. So I guess I will try and enjoy the quiet while it last. I promise tho veggie out a little more but now I have to finish my rough draft for class tonight. Nathaniel Hawthorne so interesting. Sort of.
