Just shoot me

I hate being sick. I take care of the kids when they're sick, I take care of Robin when he gets sick, but who takes care of me? Nobody! Mom's aren't allowed to get sick - ever! I have a cold. Nothing earthshattering, but I feel like someone is sitting on my chest. Nevermind the sniffles. So I am not sleeping well because I am up coughing a lot, then my nose gets plugged so I wake up because it's a nice feeling to be able to breathe.

My son calls me yesterday at work - I answer the phone like always "Good morning, Nutri-Health Group, Tracy speaking" and he asks for Tracy. I said "Speaking". He says " Oh, it didn't sound like you." I said " I'm sick". You know what he says? "Oh, are you? You weren't this morning." I said "um, yes I was". That shows you that kids don't notice when mom's are sick - only dad's because when Dad's are sick - they make it known very loudly! When Mom's are sick, they are still expected to make supper, do dishes, do laundry and still get all the kids where they need to be - on time! Sometimes I wish I were the Dad. :o)

OK - I'm done my rant. Now on to some other news.

As of yesterday's post - Landon should be at home today. Woohoo. Exactly 1 month old. Good to hear. I will give them a little time to get used to having him at home before I go visit. Heaven knows life for the past month will be quite different than having him at home.

We played our second game against Springfield Ice Hawks last night. We beat them 3-0! The kids are so happy. It's good to see them feeling confident in themselves after the last couple of years. The Ice Hawks have only lost 2 games this year in the regular season, so I am sure this is shocking them. We played them our first game of the year and we lost 3-2. We were 4th in the standings and they were 1st. Like Robin said last night, we technically shouldn't have even made it this far. But the kids played their butts off last night and hopefully Thursday will be our last league game. Then we head down to Minnesota for some fun hockey. Here is a picture of the end of last nights' game where they shake hands:



Take care.
