Well here we are in 2011...Christmas decorations down...house pulled together and school has started back up. Looks like we are all set to move forward.
Doug and I were very fortunate to receive a free trip to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. While there we
did the Zip-line Canopy in the top of gum trees, swam with dolphins, were entertained by a bunch of different groups and I...drum roll please...got sick. Not just your common cold, no sniffles and a plugged head would have been way too easy, I got a stomach virus. Nothing stayed down and eating just turned my stomach. Pretty sad when you are at an all inclusive place where eating was endless and the varieties overwhelming. So coming home from a vacation worried that you might have gained a bunch of weight was not a concern of mine. I still am not 100% Cooking for the kids is interesting because different smells are not exactly comforting.
On an interesting note...you know when your on vacation and you dread having to go back to reality, and you would like maybe just one more day to enjoy all that you have...well when you aren't feeling good that is the last thing on your mind. And guess what...that is exactly what happened. We went down to check-in for flights for the next day and due to the weather passing through the southern states there were no flights leaving to Detroit. So we unpacked and soaked up the sun another day. Doug eating a full course and me sipping Sprite...yeah me!
So we are back...Doug is back in full swing...I am trying to fix the kids a nice supper and trying to eat enough to keep my strength up. This feeling could pass really quickly and never come back!!
The kids did great while we were gone. The house was super tidy and there was a single rose welcoming us home, they were both in one piece and speaking to each other...a success! :)
So you are officially up to date at the present time.
Be blessed and have a great day! :)
