alrighty then!

Sunday's are a lame blogging day for it seems everyone! I wonder that when nobody posts if they just can't because their husbands are home, they can't appear to put too much time into, or if because the family is home, are they napping instead of blogging? OR are they "weird" about TV and computer time on Sunday and they can't blog because they feel like it isn't a Sunday thing to do. does this sound like whining? ok it might be just a tad. mostly because i am less than entertained today. I slept in. we actually i got up at the butt crack of dawn with Pierce , and went back to bed at nine. Lance got up , and did the morning food fetching and diaper changes, and i eventually got up. We didn't go to church today, because Pierce is still kind of sick. Hope started running a fever yesterday and i think Pierce has Rotavirus. I finally looked it up online, and yeah, the runs, the fever, the vomiting, are all symptoms of rotavirus, and that is all he's had. for a whole week. not just a flu bug like I initially thought. he did do pretty well for I'd say 24 hours with no fever, but then he developed another one. he has had the runs for all week and his poor little buns are chapped and red. Poor guy, we change him as soon as we hear him squirt(liquid shiest), so it doesn't burn more than the instant it is on there. Oh so yeah bored! and i am feeling pretty tired of sick kids. i hope no one else gets it. we have started obsessively using hand sanitizer, and making the kids do it too! and no sharing drinks etc. Lance went to his mom's for dinner and took the big kids, and is leaving the boys there over night. She wanted to take them to do something fun before school starts. so I have been all alone here with the sickos Hope and Pierce for the evening. fave thought for the day? Lance is bringing home the ikea catalog from his mom's for me! ;)
i was so jealous of cool jill's, that i made lance call and ask for it . since she gets the paper delivered! whoohoo! Yay! yee haw!yeah thrilled! and so tonight i shall be able to peruse the wonder!

and i should clarify, I didn;t post much for the main reason i wanted to avoid the whining. and today's activity ? we overhauled the playroom, and i vacuumed the dining room. If the family had not left, i would have made them help clean the basement which is still a pit. I considered for a minute Sundays should be a day of rest but nope , they aren't. should i attempt to change that? probably.

For me Sundays arent always days of rest they are days of church, family stuff, work stuff, homework stuff. A lot of which I shouldnt be doing on Sundays but I do. I do get to look through the ads, we get the paper solely for the Sunday paper. I love the ads!! I actually got a nap in today too. I

I was in a bad mood today too. The weather maybe? Sick kids? I'm not sure but I was grouchy none the less. Hey, have you seen the catalog...the land of nod? Look it up! It's so cute and fun to look at. It might cheer you up! happy monday!

I am usually here, but weekends are slow for everyone it seems. I always feel like I got nothing to say. Sorry Pierce and Hope are sick, no fun!

Sundays are busy, not so much a day of rest, but busy doing church stuff. Choir practice, home teachers, meetings, planning RS, etc. And Luvpilot's usually at work. I like to use the day to read and nap in between all the other stuff.

Gigantor had Rotovirus too, and man is it bad! His "runs" lasted 10 days!! YUCK. But I do have to say that Corn starch in the diaper worked miracles on the rash! Try it out!
And I have no problems with computer on Sunday, but I totally limit myself and try really hard to spend more time on spiritual things...
Some days are better than others!

I just didn't have anything unusual or exciting to blog about on Sunday.. Sorry to disappoint.. :0) Hope your kids get feeling better soon, having sick babies sucks..
I too love catalogs, but probably not as much as you.. I just get depressed that I can't buy anything I want. I'm not a dreamer so much, I want what I see, so I try to keep myself from seeing it.. :0)

Love the ads but don't get sunday paper. I only got to see them when we lived at my parents' house. Oh well, I look at their websites for the ads if I'm interested in finding something. Hey, I see you like the picture I sent you. Ben found a website with those pics & I told him I had to have them to send to you. I knew you'd love them like I did!

I've tried to make Sunday a no computer day, because I have an obsession with my MAC and every relationship needs a break now and then. But so far my co-dependant relationship is winning, not my attempt at being separated. Woo-hoo for your IKEA catalog. Mine is dog eared and I"m stoked because I'm building my 2nd IKEA kitchen. Loved, loved, loved my first. support onehm on the corn starch idea, it really works and you don't have to put your finger in it. There is something about Sundays that makes me want to get the house clean. I think it is because my husband is actually home and has no plans to go anywhere so I can split up the duties. I know we shouldn't but sometimes you just gotta.

Wondering if that might be what Hadley has..she started sat with a fever, quite high actually..and now has started with the diaper thing. It's no fun..totally sucks..therefore that would be why Im not on here much, she just wants to be held...and did I say Im going nutts!! So I feel for you Jules..please don't tell me I have to deal with this for a week! :(

I clean more on Sunday than I do any other day. Wonder why that is?

Personally I can't blog on Sunday due to the fact that my hubby would know how addicted I am!
