Well, not much to report here. I still have no energy or strength to do much yet. R thought it'd be fun to go look at some yard sales today so we drove around for an hour or so. After getting out and looking at 3 diff sales, I felt like I could fall dead asleep. It's been frustrating to feel this way, and not to have bounced back to my old self yet. It's also been very hard to have such a limited diet, of things opposite of what I normally eat. R and the kids have eaten lasagna the past 2 nights and I've almost lost my mind w/ that, bc I love it so, yet can't eat it. Ha. So ridiculous, but just frustrating. I made myself some homemade mac n cheese tonight from my cookbook w/ puree'd butternut squash, cheddar cheese and cream cheese. Not really the healthiest, but man, was it GOOD. I woulda traded it any day for lasagna, but it was a good alternative;).

Last night Randall thought it would be good if I got out and saw a movie. It was last minute and I got there late, so went alone. I went to see "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close" w/ Sandra Bullock and Tom Hanks. It wasn't nearly as good as I thought it was gonna be, so was a smidge disappointed. I expected to get a good cry, yet didn't shed one:/ It was about 9/11 from the viewpoint of a boy who was fairly close to having Aspburgers Syndrome (sp). Most the movie the kid was very rude and selfish, and even swore quite a bit, so just a little different. It was hard to love his character. It was really good at the end though, when Sandra was involved. The final scenes of the movie were great and I found myself wishing the movie had been acted out in reverse. I can't wait to see "The Vow" which comes out on my b'day.

Life has seemed quieter lately, which has been mostly good. I'm trying to stay away from the drama of FB and just chill and rest my body. I miss working out and running terribly and found myself finding some great areas to run on our yard saling adventure today. It was the most gorgeous day for a run. I was sad I couldn't even get out to walk. We did eat some lunch at home and head over to the park, so it was really fun watching the kids run rampant and have a ball. At one point Randall was upside down on his back going down the spiral slide w/ E sitting on top of him. I was laughing so hard. I'm trying to shut down the technology, yes, even the camera, and just live in the moment. I'm tired of blasting everything on FB and caring what anyone else thinks. I'm tired of a lot of things since I got sick, and how shallow lots of things seem.

Well, gonna jet. The Brighthouse guy just came and switched out our bedroom cable box and modem. Our internet and phone have been out for going on 3 days. So irritating. He was really nice, and here after hours so I felt bad for him. I offered him some dinner but he declined. He showed me some new tricks on recording shows and finding things on HD, which we have but rarely use. Nice to know TV personalities have wrinkles and hairs outta place. hhaa.

I hope to feel good enough to go to church tomorrow. I'm sure I will, just won't be able to stand the entire time for the music. They sing a lot there:)

Peace
