attack of the sickos!

Ok, well not really quite the attack of the sickos, but are some raging colds in my house right now. Alie had a cough and a stuffy nose and a fever last week, gave that lovely mixture to her sister and then Carl and I caught it minus the fever...lucky us :) Now, my poor little Alie-nut has her fever back and some pretty painful ears it seems. She's headed to the doctor with her daddy as I type. Hopefully Dr. Lake will be able to help her feel better. I feel so badly for my little lady.

In other news, I finally did it! I finally found my working out groove. I have been feeling miserable lately. I have been having trouble sleeping, I can't seem to shake the stress of work and I have been gaining weight. But I finally got into a workout routine (which my dog can't seem to love enough because it means he gets to go on more long walks with me). I have been working out and lifting almost everyday and increasing the number of long walks i take Slate on. Since we live at the bottom of a massive hill, I'm guessing that's good, right? I have definitely felt a difference, even in this short time.
