Jan 28

Why does it seem like forever in between posts and then I feel like I have to play catch up every time? Maybe I'll just quit trying to catch up and just post about what's going on now.

David is gone on a scout camp-out tonight so I am alone with the kids. They are finally all sleeping, which is like heaven to me. I don't know why I do this to myself every time David is gone, but I have a hard time making myself go to bed without him. I guess I just don't want the quiet to end. Of course I love being around them, but after a day of no school and lots of fighting, quiet is good.

I've kind of been down in the dumps lately. I messed up my knee somehow last week and haven't been able to workout this week. I haven't been running much and as a result, I have put on a few pounds and I hate it. I've been trying to keep a food journal and watch what I'm eating, but I can't seem to stay motivated to do it for more than a couple of days. I don't know what it is going to take to kick me into gear. Hopefully, this knee thing will get resolved with a lot of ice and Aleve and being able to run again will help me feel better.

And just because all posts are better with pictures and I'm not really trying to catch up, here are the kids on Christmas morning.
