Update

I had mentioned a couple of weeks ago that our neighbors may be moving and we might try to buy their house. Well, they didn't get the job transfer that they applied for so they are staying around for a little while longer. This is good and bad. We love these neighbors and are excited they'll be around, and this gives us more time to get our house ready so if they do move in a year or so we'll be ready. But we were excited at the thought of a new, bigger house of course.
This got me cleaning and getting rid of stuff so that was good. This weekend we had a garage sale and took a load of stuff to DI. Now I just need to talk Erik into new carpet and my house will FEEL new.
Jack was sick while we were on vacation and started feeling better for a few days then got a fever again on Friday. I took him to the doctor (his second visit in a week) and he had ear infections in both ears. Poor guy. Then Saturday I started feeling sick and was in bed until Monday. I'm starting to get over it, but now Erik has it. So we just can't get well over here. I wouldn't mind being sick so much, but this weekend I'm supposed to run a race.
Last year Erik and some of his family did a st. george triathlon in honor of our brother-in-law Brad. This year I'm doing a relay with his SIL Jen and a friend. I'm doing the run, a 5K. Now a 5K probably isn't a big deal to most people, but I'm not a big runner so I've been training for it. But I haven't been able to run all week so I hope I'll get a good run in tonight and feel good by Saturday. My body won't be used to that 90 degree heat, so I hope I don't die.

You will do great!!! I wish we could come! I have garlic/mullien oil - it works wonders on ear infections if you want some- and drink up professors- it will help get you better :) it is most effective if you take 2 tbl and don't eat for at least 4 hrs after- enjoy! :)

You will do great. Your heart can't get out of shape from being sick! That sucks you were sick though. Ear infections are the worst in kids too and husbands are big babies when they get sick! Hope you all get super healthy soon. Sorry about the house too. It would be a bit disappointing. I'm sure it will work out when it is the best time. Good luck with the race. Let me know how it goes. oh and what is professors that your SIL is talking about?
