Laura - Oldest did stay home. Her fever was exactly 100 which is the cut off of when they stay home. But by the end of the day she was crawling the walls and driving us nuts. It's only a half day today so she's definitely heading to school today! Recovery after being sick is the most aggravating part of being sick I think. Not wanting to push to hard that you get sick again...but tired of laying around.

Well, hubby was feeling better by the end of the day. His nose was still dribbly but everything else was improved. Hopefully the kids are getting better too. Knock on wood, I still feel fine. Hopefully this passes me by. I hate being the last one standing...I feel like I'm standing next to a bomb that I'm unsure if it will go off of when it will. I'd rather be first and not see it coming.

I got a haircut yesterday so my head is debulked. I also got my sprints on my bike yesterday and even managed to get my speed up to 23 mph on those sprints...which is really good for me! Now I'm up at 4:30 am to get my 6 mile run in before the sun comes up and bakes us all! At least it has not dropped down to 105 instead of 117. *rolls eyes

Have a great weekend!

Yesterday morning my furnace kicked in, and last night I had to turn a little space heater on in my living room because my house was so cold. Temp was in the 40s when I got up this morning. Right now it's 73 and sunny, so I wish I was at home instead of stuck at the office. Last week it was hot & humid, so it's quite an adjustment!

Glad to hear your husband & daughter are on the mend, Val. Hopefully you don't get sick too. That's an awesome bike ride! Hope your run went well.

I get my hair cut every 3 months and it feels so good to get the ends cut off & freshen up the color.

I'm exhausted today. I went for my run after work yesterday and ended up having a great run, then I went to the gym & had my first hour-long training session with Jason. He had his appendix removed early Tuesday morning so I kind of expected him to take the week off, but nope! Since he's under a lifting restriction (and can't "rescue" me if things go sideways) and I'd been sick the past couple of days we agreed on a lighter workout. He had me pulling 45# plates off of a machine that he then decided not to use, so he was joking having me move the plates was my workout. Anyway the run + strength workout pretty much kicked my *kitten* so soon after coming back from being sick, so I'm going to run a few errands after work then go home. Typically Sunday is my rest day but I'm going to take today off instead and will do something Sunday instead.

I thought I wrote yesterday but no, waiting is killing me! They made us wait a whole day then only offered to go down $1400 instead of $5800. So we said half way $2900 final deal, that was yesterday at 4 and still have heard nothing so i guess they are willing to loose deal over$1500!

I think because they sold fast and because they had another couple besides us maybe they want to try and get more. The other couple offered $2000 less than our final offer after finding out about things to fix and they needed a loan we have cash.

So i am going nuts, my realtor left out of town yesterday and is busy but sent quick text this morning that she thought we would know soon. I just sent her another text saying whats up, deal off? Another hour no response. Lots of tension here, ugh!

Went for walk today, will be glad when Y is open again on monday.

We got house! I am mentally depleted from the ordeal but we have the place! Going out to nice restaurant on river to celebrate. They have good fish.
