Healthy once again!
Ahh, I must say I really, really like eating. After 2 days of not doing just that, I've been enjoying myself the last couple of days. So, the last week in a nutshell... We went out for dinner and then discovered another new and fun game on Saturday. The game is Carcassonne, it's another of the style where you build a region and get points for completing various things. A round with 4 people takes around an hour, which is fabulous given my lack of attention span. Mike and I enjoyed it enough that we went out and got the game for ourselves with a different extension so we'll have more to play as a group, but also something to play when it's just the two of us.
Then, we had a great geocaching day with Jenn and Jon on Sunday. Went down to Weaselhead park (I think it's called something like that) which is down near Glenmore Reservoir, mostly on the reserve to the west of it. Lots of people were in the area, but we managed to remain fairly secluded while we were hunting for our treasures. In all, I think we found 12 caches, and only had 1 did not find, pretty good for a day. We even found a couple micros, which is pretty impressive given our group history with them! Exhausted, we made our way home, and eventually over to my mom's for Pad Thai for dinner. It was delicious! My mom is a great cook, and Sunday dinners are always enjoyable, if only for seeing the kids squirm trying to get away from questions about what they've been up to.
Monday was work as usual, and then on Tuesday, the badness ensued. Mike and I both work up feeling somewhat queasy (and yes, it was both of us, for any of you thinking this was some kind of "morning sickness"). We both decieded it must have been something we ate, and went to work, hoping it would improve. After being sick at work, and then generally useless for a couple hours, I decided that I was going to head home. I wasn't home and on the couch more than an hour before Mike walked in, looking like I felt. We both spent the day sleeping and being sick, not really very pleasant. By that evening, we figured we were through the worst of it, though Mike still had a fever...
In the morning, we both woke to find that unfortunately, whatever this thing was, it wasn't gone yet. We spent Wednesday again just sleeping, and by the evening both of us seemed to be on the road to recovery.
Fast forward through a couple days of work, nothing too exciting since it was just the usual stuff. Today (Friday) the cabinet that matches our dining room table and hutch was delivered, minus the glass shelves. The moving guys are now on a bit of a hunt to figure out where those went, but I told them already that I wasn't taking another day off because they forgot a piece, they could deliver at a more reasonable, non working hour time for that.
This weekend should be good, out to some friends places both days. Watching the Superbowl and getting to hopefully eat lots of food on Sunday (I like food, especially after having lost 5 pounds in 2 days missing it!). That's pretty much it for now.
