Normally, dad and I would go shopping on Saturday morning. There was no way I was going shopping yesterday. And, since my wheezy cough has kicked in, there's no way I'm leaving the house this week.

(I found the CDC's website with its symptom checker a few days ago. At that time, I was in "stay home and rest" mode. I re-checked today and am now ( Read more... )

I'm so sore today. Mom and I bowled yesterday, and while I didn't stomp the ground with the same strength she did--my mother does not know how to step lightly--my right thigh is having issues. After bowling, dad and I went out and shoveled, and while I didn't really do that much, it was enough. Of course, that didn't stop me from trying tennis ( Read more... )

I have to say, I'm really glad the blizzard waited until today to arrive. Had the snow come yesterday, my grandparents might have stayed home.

I'm going to back up a few days to go over shopping. Dad and I went out ( Tuesday night. )

My mom went to call her mom earlier today. My cousin has had car trouble, among other things, so I'm sure mom wanted to get the scoop. Just after the conversation started, the call waiting kicked in.

Part of me didn't want to purely because she found it--she would ( Read more... )

I was doing something at work today when I noticed a piece of paper that seemed to have a texture to it. I work with similar papers every day; none are textured. But then I noticed the problem wasn't with the paper, but with my right thumb. There appeared to be a blister on it. Weird. So, okay, I did a lot of computer work this weekend, but I' ( Read more... )

I have done nothing of significance this weekend. Sure, I cleaned the bathrooms and moved the vast majority of pictures from Yahoo! to Flickr--I have just over 100 left to go, and less than 80 are camp pics--but I barely left the house. I did walk to the post office this morning, at least. And a little while ago, I ran to Jewel to see if my film ( Read more... )
