Quick Update

Well since it has been 2 weeks since my last post. I thought I would give just a quick update.

-Last week I was out sick two days. I ended up going to the immediate care at the new Northepoint center and it was nice and I got in right away. I didn't have strep throat but they diagnosed me with an upper respiratory infection, these tend to hang on a long time for me. Bella was off school on Tuesday so we played a lot of candy land. I did get her to swim lessons but we decided not to do our regular grocery shopping afterwards and just came home.

-My boss is in Japan for 2 weeks but I still have plenty to do. The new paralegal starts next week. She will be taking over the policy project.

-Bella passed the first level of skating lessons and will start the next session this Saturday. She does seem to enjoy it. I need to take her to open skate sometime so that she can practice. I am just not sure I can still skate.

-This weekend is T-ball sign up. Scott is taking care of that as I will be at an all day scrapbook event.

-We saw the "waterhorse" last weekend and enjoyed it.

-With all the warmer weather and snow melting and rain the garage roof is leaking heavily into Scott's workour space so we will have that roof replaced in the near future.

-Somehow yesterday the babysitter was not there to receive Bella fromt he bus so they returned her to school and called me. I have no idea what actually happened as the babysitter said she was home and was really quite frantic when she did not arrive. Bella said the bus stopped and beeped and beeped but Karshon never came out. Again I don't know what happened exactly but I got her from school and everything is fine.

-I have been watching the biggest loser (wishing I was a bigger loser, in the weight loss area anyway) and I don't really care who wins this time around. None of the contestents are overy likeable. I hope they do a makeover show, because Dan could use it.

-This Sunday my nephew Patrick will be confirmed, we are driving down Sunday with my Aunt Norma. My dad has decided not to come down and I think it stinks!

-This week Brett Farve decided to resign from the NFL and the Packers. It is quite emotional for us Packer fans.

-We are expecting a cold weekend but then it is going to warm up.

-Bella and I are waiting for spring.

-Next week Scott's mom and her husband will return from their winter trip and we will have to contend with them.

-My mom had a birthday this past week and my parents also had their 47th wedding anniversary.

-I got a letter in the mail from my friend Pat, I guess her computer died so we will have to resort to regular mail and the telephone to keep in touch.

-Bella has done well at school this week but she has been a little troublesome at home in not listening and arguing about what you ask her to do. Then when you put her in the corner she wails like you are actually hurting her. Very frustrating, but I am trying hard to instill respect for her parents and the idea that if we ask her to do something she should do it without complaint.

-My sister is sick with strep and stuff so I hope she is feeling better.

-I have not been exercising but have been eating much better. I am really tired these days and trying to get more rest. My goal is to start exercising again on Monday.

Thats all for now. Have a great weekend.
