. . . best laid plans . . .

. . . i feel like when it's over . . .

. . . it's over . . .

. . . my to do list for today said 

"put it away" . ..

. . . instead i laid on the couch 

with chills and fever 

and a cough that is 

rattling my family's eardrums . . .

. . . i even begged off 

my responsibility 

at the temple tonight . . .

. . . i am so grateful, though, 

that it hit me after christmas, 

and not before . . .

. . . i was tickled 

to receive both these photos 

with captions 

via text this afternoon . . .

{strider bike lesson for elliott} 

{bike etiquette lesson from chris/

practicing in an empty church parking lot/

loving their lives}

. . . i am also grateful 

to the creators of nyquil . . .

. . . and robitussin . . .

. . . and my pillow . . .

. . . hoping tomorrow's a better day . . .

. . . i need to see les mis . . .
