We're a Sad Bunch

I'm referring to

The Lenzer's

We ALL suck

Mark came home late Friday night 

from a business trip

And had to leave again Sunday

I was so looking forward to 1 GREAT day 

with the hubs

BUT.....

he had thrown his back out

AGAIN

and was in pain

and a crappy mood

needless to say-

he did nothing

we did nothing

and it ruined my mood too

The boys had a birthday party to attend Saturday night

and I made Mark go with me

hurt back and all

By the time the party rolled around

My eye was in serious pain

If it is possible to break your eye

that's what I would have thought was wrong

Couldn't blink, touch it, close it

PAIN

By bedtime it was red and swollen underneath

like a black eye

but not bruised, just red

It is finally starting to feel better today

Christian has been snotty for 2 months now

no doctor can fix it

believe me, I've tried

At the party he started running a fever

Kept a fever most of Sunday

finally today just back to his regular snots

Picked Colton up from school yesterday

and he felt warm

He didn't talk in the car

ding, ding,ding

(my little bell ringing)

knew something was wrong

He came home and layed on the stairs

He was VERY hot with fever

But since he won't let me check his temperature

not sure what it is

He layed on the couch all afternoon

Ate a little supper

We went upstairs early for jammies

I made my bed with freshly washed sheets

because his diaper had leaked the night before

(yes he is still climbs into my bed every.single.night.)

A few minutes later he's watching TV

I am putting Christian to bed

Connor comes running in to tell me Colton threw up

my poor baby

my poor sheets

thank goodness for my new washer & dryer

or we would have been sleeping in Colton's bed

He has not puked again

but is still with fever

PLEASE CONNOR

stay well!!!!

The bad thing about always a sick kid

you can't go to the gym

it's weeks like this I wish I had something at home

Had the plumber here yesterday

He informed me our problems are never going to go away

if we don't invest in some sort of water softener

We have major sediment build up

HEY, what's another couple grand?

On a healthier note...

Connor is reading like a champ

listening to your first born read words

REAL WORDS

wowza

such a warm fuzzy feeling

We went to the zoo twice last week

soaking in the warm weather as much as possible

It's cold again this week

not freezing by any means

but wearing the coats again

Sunday zoo trips are great for people watching

We don't usually go on a weekend

and I quickly remembered why
but...

kind of makes you feel good about yourself

Colton is shirtless and running flying around like

SUPER MAN

so his fever must be down

let's hope it and his breakfast stays down
