Back to the Land of the Living!

The flu bug has come and gone. I still have some residual achiness, but the nasty stuff is just an unpleasant memory.

Lots to do today. Andrew needs new soccer cleats. He missed club practice on Monday and Tuesday because I was too sick to take him to get new cleats (I don't know why Joe didn't, I think Andrew was just too busy playing video games he forgot to mention it to his dad).

I have to call my college counselor today. The call was postponed because I was ill. When making a call that unpleasant it helps to be able to focus 100%. Most likely I will have to double up another month. The thing is...I didn't want to double on a month when I was working too. It might be the only way. I'm committed to not taking classes in June, at least classes that are on site.

Speaking of next June...the four of us will probably be heading to the northern state I call home. I would love to go into Denali park and then maybe to Seward. We'll have to see how it all plays out.

This weekend is shaping up to be a nice one. Low to mid 80's today with gradual warming in the beginning of next week. Wednesday is the Boy Scout Summer Court of Honor (which I am organizing). Our troop is very large, over 100 active boys. Of course they won't all come to the Court of Honor, but I have to plan like they might. Everyone is so helpful that it really is not that hard, I just have to delegate appropriately. I have class in the morning (I might skip) because the frozen foods have to be bought that day, and somehow we HAVE to see Harry Potter too. It is opening day here and the four of us are at home at the same time (that only happens a few days this month) so off to the movies we go.

Ok, off to take Bailey for a walk. Usually I run it, but I don't want to push it today. And I think we'll go the shorter 3 mile route.
