Tired of Being Confined to My House

Last week we had ice or snow almost every day.  The kids were out of school and there was no way I was driving around with all the idiots on the ice.  I got out twice last week - both times to go into the office.
The weekend came and I went grocery shopping.  That's it.  Sunday night, The Pleaser came home from his dads with a raging fever.  He's been running fever and hacking his head off ever since.  The doctor thought it was bronchitis and gave him an antibiotic but it's day 5 of 5 on the Zithromax and he is still running fever.  So I'm guessing this is some sort of evil virus or the flu.  He has missed 5 days of school already and I know he won't be going back tomorrow.

I've been stuck in this house with him all week after being stuck here all week because of ice last week.  I feel terrible for him and wish I could make him feel better but I would like to get out and see the sunshine every once in a while too.  I've been out to drop Danger Boy off and pick him up each day and I went to CVS for more drugs today and hit The Pleaser's school to pick up some of his schoolwork but I don't think that counts.

I miss Target.  Heck, I even miss work!

New Year's Resolution

I'm sure you can guess...lose the rest of my weight.  I did really well until the end of October.  Then the stress of the holidays, my parents' business woes and Danger Boy's school issues really put my exercise regimen on hold.  I only gained 4 lbs (up to 222 now) but I need to get back in the game now.

My deals board is doing a Biggest Loser Challenge, so that should be a good motivation.  At least it will make me accountable since we have to weigh in every Wednesday.  I'm on the Green Team. 

GO GREEN TEAM!

Wish me luck!!
