Blah

Rain Friday, Rain Saturday (with 40mph winds), Dry Sunday, Rain Monday.


UGH, does it EVER stop raining? I venutred out today to the grocery store. It's in Rijswijk, so it was a good 30 mins by bus (because there are so many stops). Chris actually works in Rijswijk. I head out the door, and had just missed the bus, so I walked to Centraal. It's about 2-3 miles. Got to Centraal and hopped on the tram to In de Bogaard....again. Went into Albert Heijn looking for cough drops, baby vitamins, and a few other things (milk and cokes), and came ot with my bag weighing over 50lbs (AT LEAST). Yeah, can you imagine my little 100lb body carry a 50lb bag?! I'm sure my legs were shaking. My shoulder is quite bruised, but I made it back alive. That was my first trip out by myself, and I did it! YAY. I also did it when school was getting out, so it was CRAZY!

Dylan ended up getting a snotty nose last week. Then Susie got it, then Alexa, and now my throat is sore today. The kids seem ok. Just a minor cold (not swine flu....lol). I had to grab some meds for everyone at the grocery store. I got back and everyone's asleep. Alexa clearly doesnt feel well, so I gave her some medicine, and she's standing beside me singing her ABCs now...lol. Oh, she can kinda write her name too. Of course, it's a letter here and there, not in a line, but it's a start. She still makes her As upside down, but they are perfect upside down A's.

Off to make spaghetti.
