Not at full capacity.....

I have been fighting a cold this past week and on friday...i lost the fight.  Mainly my plan of attack was a ton of water, as usual...as well as my moms suggestion of a raw clove of garlic, every 3 hours!  Started the day off on track until an hour later in the car with Chris, he pulls over and buys me a gigantic tub of breath freshening gum....i mean, he can barely get out of the store the container was so big....sigh....so in my desire to keep him happy and not smell garlic for the rest of the weekend, i gave up the garlic and in turn gave up the fight.  Enter ---> misery.

 But there is still work to do!  And not much was motivating me to get off the couch this morning....that is, until Paul and his little ones arrives and ramped up the energy in the house to the point that i pretty much dragged myself to my room for some clothes, a hat, tylenol and then ran to the car where it was quiet again.  I love those boys....but when they all get together...all adults need to be well fed and rested and up to full capacity!  Of which, i was not.

After a bleary eyed ride to Duncan.....we dropped off Rachel, who was such a nice houseguest....always is!  I sure hope she doesn't catch what i have......but the timing of having here was good....she read to the boys every night.....such easy company....i was sorry i was so miserable near the end.  So....dropped her off.....cleaning the chiro went in slow motion {as everything seemed to today!}.....after chiro, i sat in the car and skyped with mom: i was waiting for the boys to all finish their lunch in subway, and she was waiting for her delayed plane to take off in San Fran.

Made meal plans for this next week...so the grocery shop was huge.....got home, put it all away and chris went for a nap.  By 5, i delivered this to him in his room {sheesh, i am sweet}.....

 Yes...that is home made whole wheat pizza dough with salami and mozza and fresh feta on top.....i haven't been hungry for much else other than fruit, soup and yogurt....so i wanted the boys to actually eat alot of dinner...after dinner, Isaac talked Chris into helping him make his little robot that he got for christmas......

We have alot of healthy food in our fridge that should last us all week.....as well as a whole tank of gas....so here is to just enjoying the week and hopefully keeping our wallets in our pockets!!

Isaac and I are currently enjoying a Jurassic Park marathon this weekend....we are on #2.....

 oh those velociraptors are something else eh??!!!

 Where is my kleenex box?
