Sick or not...

Sick or not my week must go on... I was pretty much down on the couch all weekend long with a terrible head cold. But, come Monday, I just couldn't sit around much longer. After all, I have a mile long list of things to do this week. So, what do I do first? Head to the yarn shop, hey I needed needles. I've been on such a hat kick lately that I figured I better build up my stash of 16" needles before I hurt myself out of frustration for not having the right size when I want to start a new hat. Of course, I also found some great yarn to add to my other stash (I need more yarn like I need a hole in my head). Tuesday we were off to the Puyallup Fair which was exhausting but fun, at least the kids came home smiling while I came home with a headache, feet that were on fire and a mild backache. Oh, the joys of getting older! Wednesday, ahhh, I love my Wednesday's because that is knitting group day. Thanks goodness for these wonderful ladies, if it wasn't for seeing them every Wednesday I'd probably be a... well, let's just not go there. I could be having the worst day, or the worst week, and the minute I walk in the door my troubles just drift away! Then Thursday hits, back to the school for volunteer time in two classrooms and a meeting after that. Friday, wind down day right? NOT, Friday is our big school fundraiser. It's a silent auction and Italian dinner catered by Olive Garden. That will be one busy day and evening.

So... that is a run down of my week. I'm not trying to whine and I'm not trying to complain, I know there are crazier/busier people out there than me (yes, I'm talking about you Sue). This is just a crazy schedule for me personally... and I wonder why I can't get my house clean. When I am finally home, able to rest, cleaning is the last thing on my mind. I think I'll make some tea and settle down before everyone gets home from soccer. Thank goodness for my husband, he has been such a trooper. He hasn't complained about soccer practices yet and he has taken Hailey to every single one. He hasn't even complained about the funky things I come up with for dinner lately (whatever I can fish out of the freezer or pantry) and he hasn't even complained about the house... YET! Gotta love him!

Now I need to go find something to knit...
