Just the life of any other Rachel

This and That.

I don't feel like I have too much to say, just the usual things.

It's been raining here for what feels like an eternity.  It's actually as close to storming as we get.  (I've lived here my whole life (minus a couple years) and I can count the number of times we've had thunder and lightning on one hand.  But we have high wind warnings all night.  And one of our wind chimes just blew down and shattered.  :(  The weather is not helping my depression, and is limiting the time we spend outside.

Aside from the weather, everyone is, or has been sick.  Aaron's 92 year old grandma got the flu, which is scary, because she's 92 (though, generally in good health).  As far as I know she had a flu shot, but got it anyway.  So she had a round of Tamaflu, and is on the mend.  But Aaron's folks are both sick.  Aaron was sick for most of last week.  I've been pretty healthy (knock on wood), just little things.  Bertie has been a little sick, but just with little things too.

My dad is remodeling his bathroom.  It is original to the house, and thus is very 70's.  (Who puts carpet in a bathroom?)  New and bigger shower, new vanities and sinks, new floor, and closet remodel.  I helped him choose stone and tile today.  He'll likely redo his kitchen within the next year.  He found a contractor he likes, so let the work begin!  I should take some before and after pictures.

Bertie has been really good the last few days.  He had a few poo accidents after my last post, but overall it doing really well.  We've been colouring a lot, as a family, after dinner.  I really enjoy that, I think we all do.  It makes me a happy mommy when he is a good listener, and isn't whiny.  Livin' the dream!  Also, when he naps, he and I nap together in my bed.  He's getting so big, but he's still my baby.  (I guess you always feel that way as a parent).

I started doing Bikini Body Mommy this week.  I only got to it four times.  But it's something.

One of our gnomes just blew over and broke.  Stupid wind!
