I am not going to be sick......

I know I know I have not updated for forever. It is not because of being busy but lack of anything to blog about. We seem to be in that winter rut of just having the blahs. I have no energy and am lucky to make it through work only to come home and want to just curl up and sleep. I did get my bathroom painted and one wall in the great room. Touch up still needs to be done but I am waiting for D to fix the calking so the paint will stick. He has a touch of the procrastination bug which strikes all the males in his family it seems.
Valentines was crazy. we had house guests for the weekend due to a lovely dinner prepared by D's sisters husband. He is one of the best chefs and he made us all filet mignon and shrimp for dinner. All of D's brothers and sisters were there. We then watched D's brothers kids so that they could have a night out for their anniversary. It was kind of unsettling as they have a toddler and we have not had to deal with young littles for ten years. We are a bit rusty.
D bought a new microwave as the one they installed with the house was crappy. It worked but was so noisy when on that you could not hear the t.v. when it was on. D finally tired of the noise and when we scored a brand new Bosh for over half off we went ahead and bought it. It is so much quieter and does all sorts of fancy things.
As I sit here watching the olympics trying to convince myself that I am not sick but swallowing is becoming increasingly uncomfortable and the chills and sweats are coming more frequently....I am not sick, I am not sick, I am not sick. (if I say it enough times will it work?) I cannot be sick there is no one to work at the library. I came home early and crashed hoping to convince this to go away. Increasingly worrisome is that I am about three weeks off an infusion and I have no immune system to speak of so this could turn ugly really quick.
Wish me the best, I have to work tomorrow....

Good news is Boo scored a 3.98 for term 2 at school, way to go! I have been so impressed this year with her determination to do well at school. She has worked really hard to keep these grades high. She is enjoying the freedom of a newly minted drivers license (hard to believe that she is already 16) and her own little car to drive around. It is a little blue Metro that was given to us. Ty won't drive it because it is a stick shift and totally beneath her standards. All the better for Boo, she doesn't have to share only with her dad.
By the way for those of you who live locally the Davis County Library is having a big booksale tomorrow from 10 until 5 at the north branch in clearfield. Lots of really great stuff at good prices. Check it out you won't be disappointed!
